7 Has Never Felt So Lucky...

Oddly enough and out of the blue, a warm and peaceful calm has graced me for the past two days. I don't feel quite as sad or agitated. My anxiety has been curbed and I don't feel overwhelmed. I can't quite put my finger on what is different but it's a nice break from the waves of sheer emotion that have enveloped me, knocked me down and beat me up over the past few weeks. I can breath and it feels nice. I like the simplicity of it and I don't feel myself anticipating the worst or bracing for the next storm...which always comes...no matter who you are or what your circumstance.

7 days until Dayton turns 7
7 days until I relocate my laundry basket for good
7 days until I work full time remote from home
7 days until I have 2 weeks off

On the B Side: I don't *feel* like I'm pushing through the next 7 days. I feel a sense of relief. There is a light in this tunnel though I am sure I am far from the end of it...but the light lifts my spirit and makes me feel stronger. I am starting to feel more focused and there is a sense of control building slowly. Ladies and Gents, 7 is very lucky and has never been so good!

"Seven daaaaayyyssss."

That's my attempt at sounding like the phone call from 'The Ring.'

Are you appropriately scared yet?

Woot, girl! YOU GO!
Seven days, you can make it!! :)
