RMH, day 2 is much harder than day 11, big congrats! You can and will get here, big squishy virtual hugs.
Stress is my biggest trigger, but I refuse to be defeated. I have made it 2 weeks, my son had his surgery, he is doing very well, I survived my ex-husband staying at my house for 4 days reeking of cigs (and he smokes my old brand), a 500$ co-pay I wasn't expecting, I have overcome having my dad be a jerk on the phone (I was busy cooking, he felt I was rude and giving him the cold shoulder, hung up on me before I could explain I was cooking), then calling all my sisters to tell them how horrible I am, then having them all call me to find out what happened (I'm never rude unless there is a HUGE reason), all in all Family drama 101. Frankly I'm happy to be back at work, back in the land of deadlines, and priorities. Still finding this to be a learning experience, this weeks lesson: learning to manage stress in a healthy productive manner. Although my sister Brit had some of the best advice, "sometimes you just have to be mad, live in it, roll in it, do laps in it, right or wrong the reason doesn't matter and isn't always logical, in the end it will help you to get over it", my little sis is one smart cookie. As for my family drama, I built a bridge and got over it, no smokes required....
