Nothing More

Is there something between "In Brief" and a long, reflective post?  I'm going to have to think what to call it, but that's what this one is.

This week has been the most stressful since my wife's illness last January.  And it is related to that illness as well.  I'll not go into it in much detail...just know that she is maintaining and is not in any way needing to be re-hospitalized.  But it's clear that she'll not be working again for a very, very long time.  That brings several emotional and financial worries to the forefront.

But, there is a plan.  It will just take longer than I thought to work itself out.

I have written about my trigger foods and I recognize that I am a stress eater.  This week is no different.  I am responding to this week with some poor choices.  I recognize it for what it is.  I'm not going to rationalize it or shame myself for it.  It is stress.  And it is my emotional reaction to it.

Nothing more.
