Mine sure is. Don't get me wrong I'm pretty good about rolling with the punches but jes' sometimes I really wonder if I'm going to drive myself crazy or not. I think I just need to talk and you guys got elected (by me, sorry) for me to talk to. This has been a blankety-blankety year so far. I sure pray to God that there are no more surprises in store for me this year. I need a break and please God if your listening "Not Literally". For those of you that don't know me or haven't read some of my stuff, I'll recap this year so far (remember this is only April 29) I broke my shoulder slipping on some ice Jan 27. It was such a bad break that 2 weeks later they had to do surgery or cut it off (OK I'm exaggerating a little) but it was pretty bad. I'm the Bionic Women now (solid steel right arm). I told the doctor I wanted to be "Wonder Women" so I could fly but he like the bionic women better. Lucky me. I'm finally getting most of the movement back now, although it will be up to a whole year before its completely healed. But lets move on. My husband slipped and broke his foot and ankle 2 months ago (Let see that was about the first of March) so we are two gimps walking. I don't know who is more laughable him or me. My mom has to go back in the hospitals for them to put more stents in cause the other ones aren't working, my dad is in the hospital, he had a brain anyurisum. He's going to be home in 4-5 days so he's ok. But I mean jes' isn't there anybody else to pick on. The bible says that God won't give us more then we can handle but OK I've proved that I can handle alot, now it's someone else's turn to prove themself. Right? You agree with me don't you? Come on, say yes. Don't worry I don't need sympathy or anything just thought I'd vent a little about my life. It really is a good life no matter what I say to the contrary. Believe me I do count my blessings. Anybody like to help me count them? Come on are you a whimp or what? Just kidding.. Have a great day and don't forget to thank god for all you have or your lucky stars. But thank someone.. Tammy

I might get an internship soon and my school is almost out. Life is exciting there. Not stressed. But sometimes yeah it gets crazy. My sister on the other having all he** brought on her by all kinds of stuff.

Hi Tammy, I'll sure put you and your family in my prayers. I know things will get better. And yes, we sure need to count our blessings. Things could be a whole lot worse. My husband (60) fell and really hurt his shoulder over 2 months ago. He's just now getting to where it doesn't bother him as much. I have had to rub him down with sports cream twice daily, and I'm making him use his bar bells now trying to get is muscle tone back to par. It's not good to hurt ourselves like that. I hope you get better soon.

I believe it won't be called life if you don't have stress at all! Everybody had their own problems. And those problems create stress to their life. You just can not run away from it. It's part of life. It's how we handle it is really matters.

The way I read this, it is an invite to be thankful, so here I go with a blessing to count, and we will see if others join in: Blessing one--instead of being out of work, I have two jobs, when there are some people that have none. Blessing two--although my house needs cleaned, and repaired, there are others who have none. Blessing three--even though I do not see as much of my family as I like, I have family, and they love me--others have none. I hope we can get a good count. Mylot is a blessing too, and I think it is a pretty good place to blow off some steam.

I won't say that my life is stressed. Just only experience stress through my daily routine of work. But I'am happy and loved my life now because of God, my family, friends and career. Exhaution comes but can easily cure it through this wonderful additives in my life.
