But I did not feel sorry for myself!

The past week has been crazy! I feel like the sky had fallen. I was worried that my cozy little world was broken beyond repair. 

And yet I was able to sleep well through the night.

Hallelujah! 

I have had a few little melt downs, but I am proud of myself. I did not obsess about what was going on. I did not let it take over my life. I talked to people about it and tried my best to enjoy each day.

Today I came close to have a major meltdown. I yelled. I shed a few tears. I had to take myself for a little walk. I was able to sit down, look at everything, and not panic.

A few years ago I would have freaked out that my family secrets were being exposed. I am actually relieved that the people who know know. It feels like a weight is off my shoulders. 

It feels good.

The worst is not over. I expect the other shoe to drop any day. But I know I can handle it. I know I am strong. 

Today instead of sitting on the couch and stuffing my face, I went to the gym and ran! 

Victory!!!!!

And then I celebrated by getting my eyebrows threaded.
