It seems to happen in amounts equal to the weights we lift! I seriously feel like I’m losing it. Not the faith in lifting that I always refer to. Not the desire to lift heavy. I want to be a real man with mass like Bill is always talking about. But with the things going on I just don’t have the energy, physically or emotionally, to lift. It’s like Mike says, "It’s just weight." But why can’t I lift it?
Work is in a state of flux with processes to our business changing virtually every day. And those changes only last 48 hours until they change again. Well, if we’re lucky. And then we have to go retrain the "new and improved" process that are strangely just like the "old" process to 200 people in a single day. And that’s of course after we create the training material for the new material.
Then, on the home front, my brother-in-law is going through some tough times being unable to find a job and has taken some time away to think. He simply left my sister a note that he needed some time and was gone. Now before people go getting all mad at him, understand that my sister made the suggestion that he go take some time to do just that. The problem is more that she did not know where he was and he did not say anything. So lately, I have been playing the super uncle and helping with my niece (3) and nephew (5). Getting them dinner, helping with bath and bed time, entertaining them after dinner, getting my sister up in the morning. I haven’t had much "me" time lately.
I seriously have a new found respect for parents. And of course, if you’ve kept up with my blogs, my mom seems to be having another of her Polish episodes. Why not just pile on more crap right? But, I will say that there is one thing that I have realized through this entire ordeal. Diet Dr. Pepper DOES taste more like regular Dr. Pepper!
Keep the faith!
