Sep. 17th, 2004 02:17 pmOccasionally I stop and take stock of my life. I break my life into 5 categories, family, work/financial, social/friends, love life and mental/physical health. Usually 3 to 4 of them are on the "happy" side of the scale. I suppose some people might argue that spiritual would be a 6th, but since I'm not a terribly spiritual person, I don't.
I did this again toady on the walk home from work.
Family: Not going so great since my news has hit them. A few are putting forth a good effort, but its hard on them, which I understand, and leads to some uncomfortable moments.
Work: Sucks. Most of my friends are out of a job now, the few who are left all feel like me and hate their job. Starting next week I'll be making less money and have less benefits. I also don't know what I'll be doing, can't find any where else to work, and feel like shit because while I think the I'm worth a lot as an employee, I can't seem to find anyone who agrees with me.
Friends: This is fine. My friends are still great, and I can still count on them. We are drifting though, which is natural. Due to the firings at work, growing up and settling down, I see less and less of them all the time. My online friends are fun, but most of them I've only just met and aren't real close to yet (with a few exceptions).
Love life: Nonexistent. And while I might have some possibilities, nothing really promising.
Health: I'm tired and depressed. I am apparently allergic to my laundry detergent and have a rash over a lot of my body. I'd go to the doctor, but since my insurance is now done with until I get hired by the new company, I really can't.
I am now tired and depressed and going to take a nap instead of doing stuff the NEEDS to get done. Someone wake me when life is better, OK?
This is not a "I want pity" post. Just thought out the post on the walk home and getting it out there helps me feel better, I hope.
