September 11th 2010

Today was a pretty relaxing saturday. I did have plans to wake up and go walking/running however I came in pretty late this morning and slept in till about 9AM. Woke up in a good mood and had some errands to take care of. Got back in around Lunch time and a Friend and I decided to go play a few rounds of golf. Spent about an hour out there before it just got too damn hot but i had a pretty good workout. I'm sure I'll feel it in the morning even though I stretched prior to going out.

Got back home took care of a few errands and ended up taking a much needed nap. I've got a charity even to attend early tomorrow morning so I went out and cleaned the car to prep her for tomorrow. I've been feeling better but i'm always trying to keep myself busy. Sometimes I feel scared about getting another anxiety attack so I keep my mind going and focusing on more important things. I picked up new book and magazine earlier today so tonight I might stay in and read for a while or might head out to hang with some friends just to get out of the house.

I know I said I would touch on the thinking topic but I'm going to save that for later this week. My condolences go out to those who had family/friends that were lost on 9/11.

I remember it like it was yesterday. I was sitting in the computer lab at school when i get called up to the office. My parents decided to come pick me up but they weren't able to say anything to me because nobody at school really knew what had happened besides the principal. At the time I was glad I left school but couldn't figure out why my parents decided to come get me. Once I realized what was going on I was shocked. We could see the smoke on the way home from school and when we got home we could see it clearly since we had a perfect view of the city from the end of my street. Something I will never forget...

Will get some time tomorrow to post an entry. Should be home from the charity even later in the evening and I'm going to catch up with some of my favority TV shows.

Its Friday

Got through the rest of my week pretty good, despite being semi swamped at work these last two days. So I'm sitting here on a Friday night kinda wondering if I should go out or stay in and watch a movie. My nose is stuffy and in the back of my mind I'm like great I feel like I'm getting sick so naturally i start thinking about being sick. Of course this brings on some thought of anxiety but a buddy of mine called and asked to hang out so I said sure, might as well get out the house for a little bit, clear my head. I've been noticing as things get better with my anxiety, from time to time I will take a step back and say wait everything is going smooth.... are things supposed to be so smooth? Its like I'm sometimes on alert just waiting for the next anxiety attack to happen and I think that can bring on actual anxiety. I let these thoughts jumble up in my head for no apparent reason... Not going to get into detail on this tonight as I'm heading out for a littl...

Pre-Birthday Anxiety

Not sure what was on my mind today but I had another small anxiety episode. Woke up this morning fine and took care of some errands. I returned home later in the afternoon and ate. As i hopped in front of the TV to watch a movie i felt a little "off" and well the rest was history. Thoughts obviously started to race through my mind and I felt anxious, why? I'm not sure. I felt as if I had to get up and go do something or go somewhere. But did i follow through with that thought? NOPE, I remained as calm as possible despite my mind racing and my stomach feeling like someone just punched me. I relaxed myself as best as possible and tried to take control of the situation. Eventually I ended up spending some time chatting with my Grandmother who has always been there for me regardless. And let me just say what a relief it is to talk about your anxiety , it was like instant relaxation. In the past I've talked about it and felt better but today It was great, I've been t...

Mini-Vacation weekend!

Hey everyone, Sorry about my absence around here lately. I've been extremely swamped at work with project after project and long days. I'm excited to announce that I will be going on a Mini Vacation this weekend. Taking a day or two off work and heading up to the mountains with some friends to snowboard and just generally relax! Hopefully I will get some time to blog a bit more. Quotes coming up tonight, stay tuned.
