I can't say this CV thing isn't getting to me at some level if only because I woke around 2 this morning and my mind was spinning with calculations for this coming week. Need to get my car in for undoubted repair and it suddenly hit me: "What if they impose a mandatory shut-down...and my car's stuck there..." Ah, those infernal what-ifs. Loose ends.
Calmer heads prevailed later (and after reading a while) when I realized there would be some advance notice. So I have a tentative plan/strategy thanks to that unwanted insomnia. Normally little good comes from those wakeful hours when fears, however small, can raise their heads and try to burrow into mine. They didn't get too far this time, and good thing.
About that middle of the night reading: I've also noticed I'm more easily distracted from what's on the page the past few days which is a sign of stress for me. Good for me to be aware...maybe add some deep breathing to the regimen and grab my dusty journal. Writing is a great expectorant. Get that stuff out of my body/head and onto paper where it can do far less harm and maybe do some good. (Just realized this as I was typing which proves the point.)
In the midst of this and for right now, let's enjoy the constants in our lives.
