Stress- Is it really worth it?

Sometimes I catch myself literally freaking out! Stressed to the max, and feeling completely out of my head. Then I say HELLO, EARTH TO EMILY! COME BACK TO REALITY! I would say that I stress way too much. An unhealthy amount actually. Especially when it comes to work. I work for a medical distribution company working directly with 8 hospitals that depend on me daily to get them the products they need to keep their doors open, and their patients alive.

Example, I would say my morning started off normal and then BAM. Hi stress! From about 8 am to 9:30 am my mind was going crazy with OMG what is going to happen ect. Can you guess what that stress was caused by? Do you really want to know? It's pretty embarrassing to say...but my account was out of washcloths and needed more STAT! Their is a huge shortage/increase in cost of cotton so textiles are hard to come by so finding a solution did take a bit. But really...did I need to freak out and get all worked up because one of my hospitals didn't have something as simple as washcloths? Of course we found a solution but I think it would have been a lot better if I would have just stopped to take a breath and then move forward.

Everyday is a new day for me to try and stress out a little bit less than the day before, let's call it a work in progress.

What do you do to relieve stress?

stress ball? One of these poor guys would not survive in my hand!

I usually try and listen to music and take my mind off of the current stressful situation. Here are few of the songs that put me in a better mood.

Here's to tomorrow, a less stressful tomorrow that is! :-)

I'm back...& Teen Mom

Hi Everyone! As you can see all my blog posts are gone...not sure what happened but I'm starting fresh and ready to write again. I've decided my first post wont start with all that has been going on in my life (maybe Eric and I bought a house and moved in together...NBD right?!) but to write about none other than Teen Mom. Yes, the original people from Teen Mom are back in action starting tonight...

I have mixed feelings when it comes to this show. Yes it shows the struggles these young people are going through, but to me it also glorifies bad decisions and behavior. I am 23 years old and I do not feel responsible enough in my life right now to have a child. Do I feel like I would be able to adjust and grow up if needed? Absolutely. Do I feel the young "adults" on Teen Mom have grown up? Honestly, NO. I feel that the majority of them feel as if their child has come into their life as an inconvenience.

Farrah for example, I understand that her boyfriend was killed and automatically made her a single mother but the way she treats her own parents makes me sick. Speaking of parents...My question is what role has all of their parents played in their own lives? It seems that either they aren't around, or they are barely in their own child's life to help with guiding them in the right direction to make them better parents at such a young age. Don't even get me started on Amber...if you need a refresher on who she is, she is the young brunette who seems to lay around all day, have a horrible temper, smack her boyfriend around, and is just too "tired" to take care of her own daughter. I hope she gets serious help this season because she seems to be on a down hill spiral. I don't look into tabloids much but the fact that she is still in them gives me an idea that she is still acting out and doing things not in her child's best interest.

Anyway, I've enjoyed my amazing 4 day weekend, (Happy 4th America!) and tomorrow is back to work. Thank goodness for a 3 day work week. Tomorrow is hump day already! Where does the time go?

Stay tuned for exciting things to come. :-)
