Today has been a lot. Hell, this week has been a lot. Too many emotions are running constantly. I’m so overwhelmed.

I’m so glad we got our car back, and she’s running beautifully. But the detailing took longer than it was supposed to and ended up causing me to run late. Being late causes me so much anxiety, which takes its toll mentally and physically. Today, we decided to take a look at putting in better security measures so that it is harder to steal. I don’t really want to see what happens if it’s stolen for a third time. That ended up costing fast more than we were expecting.

With my husband or if work, money is tight. It’s really tight. Spending so much money on my car the last few days was necessary, but it’s making me nervous.

I promised my children would never see the hardships I did. I’m afraid we’re toeing that line.

I’m just exhausted and emotionally drained. This time of year is always harder on me, and adding this stress isn’t helping. I’ll be ok, I don’t have a choice. But days like today seem to be too much.

What do you do when the day is too much for you? What coping mechanisms do you use?
