Stressed...stressed...stressed out. Today I feel totally stressed out. I am learning how to control it though something called stress management. Basically this means how to manage stress.

I found this awesome book on the internet from this website with stress management tips which I have been reading to help me manage this stress in my life.

What is the stress in my life you ask? Well I'll tell you I have gotten myself in this mess over the years by allowing my husband to basically become a couch potato watching tv all the time and eating. He keeps getting fatter and fatter. Oh my gosh, and it is like pulling teeth to get him to do anything around the house. He does go to work, however he hates it.

I have been working full time, going to school full time to advance in my career, and also looking around on the internet to find out how to make my like better. Well the more money I make, the less he makes. Especially with the economy the way it is. He is a self-employed sub-contractor doing something that improves the look of your house. Due to the economic problems many people have been facing over the last year or so, face it say people do not fix up the inside of their house as much as they used to. Then on top of that the gas prices are a killer. We have to pay for his gas traveling from house to house you know. It is hardly worth working these days, with the high gas prices, the lower pay cuz not enough work, and the other fixed costs like business insurance, van expenses, etc., etc.

Well this probably sounds like whining to you. It does to me. But I had to get this off my chest so you can understand how or what got me to this point. Maybe this is therapy for me to write this cuz I'm not really sure anyone is going to read it anyway, maybe they will. If you are reading this, hope it makes you feel better, like you are not alone.

Now, I do realize I have allowed this to occur in my life, and after reading this book, have figured out what is causing my stress. Now I am in the process of fixing things.

And eventually I will. Check out the site I found and hopefully you will find what you are looking for in this book as well. I am sure you will find at least one thing to help you. I did. If you stayed with me through this whole thing til the end, thanks for reading.
