Overwhelmed

[queenoftheskies]

I don't think I'm stressed. I don't think I'm depressed. Not yet, at any rate. To either one.

Right now, I think I'm just overwhelmed.

I hate knowing something that everyone else doesn't know. I feel bad for everyone else who doesn't know. I guess part of me also resents knowing.

But, unless something changes drastically, I think there's probably only one more week of work.

I know. I have to prepare some information that will probably be used at the end. Unless something drastic happens.

Other people continue to work normally. They think things will be okay. They don't know.

That doesn't seem fair. To me. To them.

Does it?

I'd hoped things would work out. Or at least hang on longer. There's only about 6 weeks until my daughter graduates from high school. I'd hoped to hang on until then.

At that point, if I'd had to move or something, it would have been easier.

But, everything happens for a reason. Yes?

Yes.

My wife, careswen maintains that everything happens for a reason, but I know how stressful your situation is. I've been the supervisor in a small office, and known for weeks that we were all going to be unemployed, but was unable to tell my fellows. My wife is in a similar situation right now, where the clinic she is the office manager for is teetering on the edge, and right now it's a coin-toss as to whether they will survive the summer.

Yes, everything does happen for a reason, even when those reasons aren't clear to us.
