Hi Girls,
I need to vent, or maybe I need some lime green filtered goggles to cut through the pink fog. A couple of weeks ago I took a business trip, probably one of my last for a while (just naturally changing responsibilities at work). During that trip I got to spend two and a half days living full time as Melissa and the remaining four evenings as Melissa. It was absolutely wonderful! I have never got to spend so much time as Melissa. Even better, I was for the most part at piece with myself for once. I got home to a crazy situation, the family dog died the night I returned home. She was old and had been sick for a while... Family was going crazy over that and I had some other things I had to attend to upon my return. Then the run up to Easter; children's activities; volunteer tasks; .... It has been a crazy couple of weeks and I have just not been right the whole time and it has been eating at me.
Sitting here at work, I am yet again horribly distracted and unable to focus. But I think I have finally figured out what it is. I am deep in the fog. I am really wishing that I could just say to heck with it and just live life as me (who I see me to be) when and where I want. But I can't. I love my family too much. This side of me is not something my wife approves of and it will forever have to remain a private part of me.
So if somebody has some of those lime green filtered goggles, or maybe a large fan, or knows how to raise the temperature enough to burn off the fog for a bit, please send send them my way, I would greatly appreciate it.
I love my pink fog, but not when it becomes a distraction to all else.
Thank you for letting me vent,
Melissa
