My Day Job

Work is hard.
I am tired.
Too tired to even go through my mail.
Or put my shoes anywhere other than right by the front door.
Or hang my jackets in the closet, instead of on the back of my kitchen chairs.
I even ALMOST paid my taxes a day late.  That's how bad I am these days.

I need to reevaluate my routine.  This new job - it takes a lot out of me.  More than I thought it would.  Which means other parts of my life are suffering , which doesn't really work for me.
So it's time to rethink.

Whenever there's a change in one aspect of your life, it's important to recognize the effect it has on the whole of your life.  And it is an ongoing process.
For example, in 6 weeks, my "training period" will be over and then my schedule, stress, anxiety will change again.  Which means I have to be open to making other changes at that time too.

If you're like me, you try really hard to keep your work-life and your personal-life separate.  But no matter what you do, they're undoubtedly connected...and a change in one often leads to a change in the other.

(Easier said than done, as always.)
