Yesterday was my two year wedding anniversary. I celebrated by bursting into tears.
Not for the reasons one might suspect, thankfully, but they were not happy tears. I forgot, you see, and came home to a hubby who had gifts and kisses, and I had nothing at all because my brain will. Not. retain information.
I am so very sick and tired of never remembering anything at all. Trying to hold on to anything at all feels like . . . like I'm staring at a bunch of movies randomly spliced together and sped up ten times, or someone is flipping past slides before I can get a good look at the image. I'm *sick* of it, and I don't know why it's there or what i can do. Is it chemical, behavioral, a focus problem of my own creation, a symptom of internet addiction, a sign of ADD? Who knows.
Just, ugh.
More stress, more forgetting. I can't breath I'm so underwater right now-- backed up on my bills, in the horrid last stage of moving where everything is packed up but you're not in your new place yet, so you just . . . wait. Behind on commissions, stress eating, stuck inside last week or risked burning to death in the heat wave. Jason's last class, Jason trying to find a job, house, I don't know. There's more, but-- ha ha-- I can't remember.
It's that awful cycle where I *must* relax, because I've been going and going since my vacation in April, but I have too much to do to relax for long. I'll take a night, spend it reading, feel good, and then the shear weight of everything undoes that defrag time in moments.
One foot in front of another, right?
