Finally Exhaling

The long Thanksgiving weekend was so nice. I was really on the edge, from lack of sleep to stressing out at work, to stressing out about my child, to stressing out about my finances… I needed a legitimate break and finally got one. I felt bad, “abandoning” Vivian with her father for three days while I got my head together. I sat on the couch, I cried, I avoided everyone and everything, even Mum had to work so I had the flat to myself. We didn’t make a huge Thanksgiving dinner, but she brought one home from work including a slab of prime rib and cocktail shrimp. Oh and a pumpkin pie. It was such a blessing. The weekend went too fast though. I really took advantage of it and lazed around. 

I can feel myself getting sick. I got a second wind of energy courtesy of a power drink from the organic shop so it’s hard to get to sleep but I must.
