Happy Stress

Stress- a word that typically has negative connotations. Stress- we're supposed to do all kinds of things to relieve it and/or prevent it because it can cause health problems, emotional issues, and make us simply...stressed.
I am definitely in stress mode, but I keep reminding myself that it's all good, happy stress. How can that be? All the events filling up my calendar are actually positive.  Two in-district classes (need to be on a Twitter Live chat in 15 minutes, writing daily, physical therapy for the bum knee, formal observation the last day before spring break, checking out my daughter's wedding venue, a Friday night outing with the YA-YAs (a group of besties). All of these things will improve my craft, my health, my relationships! All positive, but I am...you know...stressed!

  2. Sending positive thoughts because I am also in stress mode! Hang in there and keep those items you complete checked off on your list so you can see that you ARE making progress.

  3. I used to do feel that way. Now I say no to many things so I don't get stressed. It's hard! But I feel better for it.

  4. Thank you for lending your perspective to my stressful day. I think I might try this: writing to the contrast of a word.
