This update is short and sweet. Today was stressful and I did not step up. I snapped, I whined, I worried. As witnessed by a small circle, I shed a tear. Or ... more than two. I did not carry on, keeping calm. I crumbled.
And I HATE that.
All I can hope that is that no one noticed my bad form much as it seemed they must have - and try hard to do better tomorrow.
In the meantime, tell me: How do you face stressful situations with grace?

Often, I don't. Face stressful situations with grace, that is. Sending you wishes for sound sleep and a better day tomorrow. xox
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lindsey! Xo
DeleteThat's brilliant! (and I love that name)
ReplyDeleteI try really hard to do a version of something Judy came up with to say instead of automatically saying no, "That's interesting, let me think about it."If I'm able to create space of some sort I can remain calm. Usually it involves trying not to engage too fully. If I can't, I cry. Either way, Andrew is required to meet me at the door with a glass of wine when the day is over.
ReplyDeleteOooh... great advice!
