frantic

[lisagoddess]

yes, frantic. that's the best way to describe this weekend. I tried to see everyone at once, and ended up seeing very few people at all. At the same time, I've hardly been home at all this weekend and I'm just as tired now, on Sunday night, as I was at the end of Friday. Friday, March 20th is a national holiday here in Japan, so I'm looking

Frantic

I know that feeling. All my days feel that way. I finally lose it and freak out. Cry. Then sleep. My problem is a lot of people call me, to help them when they're sick, lonely, want to bitch, whatever. I have my own stuff! My parents are here for another month, my son is Bipolar and takes a lot of time. On and on. I know people have it way worse than me, so I try to think about that when I'm bitching to myself. I miss my job at the Coast Guard. No one could get me there! LOL.

Hi r, I know how stressful you must be feeling. I know how alone you feel, like you're doing it all and helping everyone but yourself. But you should know you're not the only one, Im there many times. It's hard to pull through if you dont have a support system, and its not much comfort for some stranger to say I hope things get better, but I hope they do. I counsel Bipolar teens, so I know your pain. Good luck luv.

Hey

My friends keep discouraging me from teaching ESL. I was wondering if you could help me out? Im worried about going over there, failing, being poor all that stuff. This is kinda personal, but are you able to get by with the cost of living over there? I hear its ubber expensive.

I just know that I cant find a job here so I'm looking over seas.

Thanks. I know you're busy, so if you want, you can post on my live journal when ever. I haven't even applied yet.

Thanks

Yeah, but then I say to myself, at least I have my health. I have a few friends that went or are going through Cancer. I look at my situation and tell myself to "shut up!" Things could be waaay worse. Things will get better. I was in a venting mood. Have to get it out somewhere without feeling judged.

Well I have had my fair share of health problems, even at my age! And things will get better, I mean once you hit bottom, no where else to go. But then again, if you're like me or have my luck, some one will dig a hole under ya. lol! You know my LJ name now, vent anytime you want. I think people like blogging and Live journalling so much because of what you said, they don't have to worry about being judged so long as the people don't know who they really are.

Chopping Board

Lisa, I just read yout last twitter ("i dont have enough space in my kitchen so i end up using the chair and bed to put stuff on") and I remembered seeing Yuta a few days ago using one of those chopping/cutting boards that you can place on the kitchen sink to save space, like: http://www.trendir.com/archives/suter-kitchen-sink1.jpg or http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EzzV56XgaoM/SM3OwPa17FI/AAAAAAAAABw/RGGYIZgRQpw/s400/MysticBean_CuttingBoard.jpg One of those would be very useful!, don't you think? :) Well, thanks for broadcasting and showing us beautiful Japan!
