Hi, you have reached the voicemail box of XXX...
If you are obsessive-compulsive, please press 1, repeatedly.
If you are co-dependent, please ask someone to press 2.
If you have multiple personalities, please press 3, 4, 5, and 6.
If you are paranoid-delusional, we know who you are and what you want. Just say on the line so we can trace the call.
If you are schizophrenic, listen carefully and a little voice will tell you which number to press.
I have found that in my new role I've become mother/sister/daughter confessor-problem solver-go to gal. Part of me really likes this, likes to be in the know, but part of me is like - "leave me alone I have my own work to do dammit!!!! Go solve your own damn problems!!!!" Ahhhh, I feel better now.
It's just been so crazy/hard. I mean I still work on the same team, with generally the same people but there is just SOOOO much to do and a lot of it is new (financial stuff and I suck at math!) so there is a learning curve. Add to that 2 people about to go have babies and me covering for them, you get the picture...I'm doing the job of like 4 people!!! Plus I'm a perfectionist, hate to fail and hate to let people down. I know, I just need to remember to breathe, right?

That's hilarious!
It sounds like you have your hands full there. Is it going to be ongoing like this or just for a project now?
Definitely breathe...and if that doesn't work do like Jen and get a drink. ;)

being a perfectionist sucks! I am one too, this is why I get stressed over the Blogging......
I heard somewhere the reason we get stressed is because we take on far more than we can possibly do.
We have to take a step back, and do the best we can, then say to ourselves, well I have done what is humanly possible to the best of my ability, I cannot do anymore.
It does work!
love and light Jeannie
