It was a long night.

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone,

Last night sure was a long night for me. I did not sleep even one wink. I

try to stay positive and not think too much about stressful subjects. Last

night, however, I think certain stressful subjects in my life decided to pop up,

stand their ground, and stay put right on the front burner of my mind.

I let myself feel the feelings that come up and then move on. For example, if

I get depressed, I will allow myself to crawl into a ball and cry if I need to

for as long as it takes. I will then pick myself up and move into finding

mindful things to help lift my spirits.

I guess I was meant to feel the stressful feelings last night. Between those

and the pressure changing constantly throughout the night, my pain reached an 8

on my pain scale. I did everything I knew to do in attempt to take my mind off

the stressful subjects. I did my meditative stretching, watched infomercials,

played on the computer when I could, etc. Sometimes it helped, which was nice,

<smile>.

I am hoping to get a nap in today sometime. I am meeting up with some friends

at a local book store this afternoon, so hopefully I can get a nap in before

then. My pain is horrible right now, so I need to get going.

Love,

Becky in SD
