Thinky Thoughts About Anxiety

[mizarchivist]

I am SO VICTORIOUS! I walked up to the post office with a big stack of stuff to mail. Everything had an address. Everything was in a correct container. Everything was taped appropriately and old labels removed. One of the things is niece's birthday present, which I try very hard to get there by her birthday (21st).

It's REALLY hard for me to do this sort of thing on a good day because it's so many bits and pieces that have to come together. It was somewhat made easier by having correct mailers- 3 mugs, specifically- all arrived in amazing molded reusable packaging. Mailing Christmas gifts are extra tricky because anxiety of "is it good enough"

Anyway, I wrote this yesterday then wandered off.
... Then ended up not hitting update yesterday. Geeeez.
Tell me about your mundane anxiety, if you want.

I'll fill you in on all of mine tonight, if you really want.

Anxiety is a beast.

Thank you for the call that let me do just that. I'm more stable now. Go you on being VICTORIOUS!
It's funny that you say you have trouble with the thing with so many bits and pieces, as that's exactly the thing I have in my mind of what you are good at.

Hah. I guess it depends on the bits and pieces, eh?
Glad I called, too. <3

There may or may not be critters hiding in our crawlspace. They woke me up at 4am today. I think they're the squirrels that live in the maple in the backyard, the one where the hawk was perched most of today. I tried to scare them away with loud hawk sounds from inside the house (courtesy of YouTube). We'll see if that means I get to sleep through the night tonight...
