Calm - Yeah Right!

On Monday September 4th I blogged about the feeling of calm that had settled over me, that I was happy. Four days later I had emergency surgery to have my appendix removed and nothing has been the same since. Not even close to calm. I think I am a glass half empty person. Being the person that I am and have a hard to making and sticking to decisions I waiver between glass half full and glass half empty. But I am pretty sure I am glass half empty now. I feel like I am always thinking of the worst case scenarios. Like just now, my grandma called Sarah's cell phone and she didn't answer right away and I am like freaking out. She had to answer because it was 12:30 there and there must be an emergency or she wouldn't call that late.

It turns out that she just wanted to call us at an appropriate time so she waited, no emergency. But I pushed my panic button for no reason. Staples has an easy button and I have a panic button, I would like to know how to trade mine in.

The next few days will be long, parent teacher conferences, a meeting with the behavioral resource specialists regarding a student, a potluck, and then vacation for two weeks, and actual fun vacation. Yah maybe I can work on that glass half empty thing.
