Where to start?
This summer has been really crappy weatherwise. I don't think I've seen a summer this rainy and cool. Makes me wonder if I'm wasting time in Sask. Might want to think about somewhere warmer....Mexico or US maybe?
Work is insane. Work is always insane. Work doesn't seem to have very long periods of non insanity. I love it, but it's draining. It's Wednesday, I'm completely mentally exhausted. Does everyone work this hard or is it just me that comes home utterly mentally exhausted? I know for a fact that not everyone works this hard, but can you be passionate and enjoy something and not be mentally exhausted at the end of the day?
Sports. Next summer do I want to play 2 sports? I'm exhausted from running around after them. I'm not digging frisbee this year. I like the strategy of it, and game plan. This year there's not really any of that on this team. I think I'd be happier with 2 slopitch teams. Or just one team and that would give me time to bike and run on my own and still see my non-sporty friends. I'm juggling too much I think.
Weird happenings. 2 ex-boyfriend run ins in the last 2 weeks. One can't look me in the eye to say hi, the other wants to meet to have coffee. Both incidents make me say, What was I thinking back then? And even prompt me to become a bit mad at myself for those. Man, did I not have my head on straight then. Me now would of punched me back then. How could I have been so naive? And thank god I've smartened up to what I really want and what's really important.
Exhausted, might be coming down with a cold. Happy where I am right now lifewise, but always with the questions. :) Don't construe this as complaining. I'm just dumping my brain on the internet for the world to see. Pressing the giant reboot button on my brain....

1) Weather-wise, thats always a crap shoot. Yeah summer hasn't been to great, but go somewhere else and things could be worse. Sure California is nice and sunny, but its MUCH more populated, polluted, and expensive. Then you'll have to deal with the whole US private health insurance stuff.
I'm not trying to dissuade you in any way, just reminding you to look at the whole picture. :)
2) In my experience, work is insane for people who choose to make it insane. Its important for one to learn the word "No" and to turn down work/projects/responsibilities that would overextend oneself. Always remember that its in the corporation's best interests to work its salaried employees as much as possible without burning them out. They will never (or extremely rarely) be the ones that come to you first to talk about any issues with you working too hard. Managing workload is an employee's responsibility and my recommendation would be to talk to your supervisor about it. Any good company/supervisor will take action to make your work more manageable and if they do not, then I would strongly suggest looking for a new company!
3) If the sports stuff is stressing you out more, then ya maybe drop one, especially if you are losing interest in it. Instead, maybe pick up an activity that is more of a solo thing, like a yoga class?
4) No comment on the ex-boyfriend run-ins. I'm sure in a smaller city like Saskatoon, its bound to happen eventually. The important thing is that you realize now that those relationships were not something that you wanted, and that you obviously made the right decision by exiting them when you did.
Always in your corner,
John
