So today is the day I’m off to jury duty. We’ll see how it goes. I think I need the distraction from my hum-drum work day.
Logged on to the Samhain book store this morning and discovered that TALK DIRTY TO ME has risen to #4! WOOHOO! I’m very happy about that. Thank you to everyone who has made this book a success. You don’t know how much it means to me.
Yesterday was one of those emotional days. I had a hard time keeping it together until I got home from the office. Then I sort of just fell apart. There are a lot of factors here, too, making me feel this way. I also had the strangest thing happen to my left eye. After talking with my friend who’s a nurse, she said it sounded like an ocular migraine. That’s more of a relief than a detached retina! Anyway, I couldn’t see for about 20 minutes out of my left eye and I had no depth perception. It was freaking me out. I’m sure it was stress-related as I’ve been having a lot of self-induced stress.
Anyway… Today is better. At least, it has to be. I can see just fine. I don’t have the complete urge to lay in bed and pull the blankets over my head.
I’m dying for a cup of coffee. Guess I better get going so I can stop and get one before I get to the courthouse. Wish me luck.
Hang in there. You’d had to handle a lot on your own. But you’re doing such a great job, and, for the most part, you’re happier, stronger, and more creative than ever. Those are all good things!
It’s amazing the effects stress can have on our bodies. Any chance you can go for a relaxing massage or something?
Hope jury duty went okay, today and congrats on all the success of the book!
Also, did you happen to see that HBO movie a few years ago, “Hysterical Blindness?” In the beginning of the movie, the main character was diagnosed with this due to extreme stress. She went temporarily blind one day at work.
Anyhoo, hope you’re able to decompress and get some rest soon. Thinking of you!
