"Overwhelmed"

And not making any apologies.  I will be fine, but for today, it is what it is.  I know all the things I need to do to feel better, but right now I just don't have the courage to actually do them.  I'll start tomorrow.

You see it's all about my rain barrel.  When it rains too much, for too long, the barrel overflows.  One needs some consistent sunshine in order to evaporate some of the water.

And yes, I also know that a person can call down their own sunshine, but this person just can't right now.

And still, since I committed, here's my silver lining for today.  I'm gonna get a new wheelbarrow!!

"Sometimes when you're overwhelmed by a situation - when you're in the darkest of darkness - that's when your priorities are reordered."---Phoebe Snow

....and one of the greatest benefits of writing this blog is finding supporting quotes.  So often I find timely advice.  Like this.....

"Many of us feel stress and get overwhelmed not because we're taking on too much, but because we're taking on too little of what really strengthens us."---Marcus Buckingham
