Deep breaths...deep breaths...gotta take deep breaths.

I am one week and one day before my last day at my current job.

Think of me, pray for me, sending me gentle thoughts.

Mandy and I reminisced on some of the past years we've shared together. We laughed so hard. I snorted. I had tears running down my face. I am incredibly thankful for the years that I was able to share with some of my closest and dearest friends.

When I get stressed, I turn to food. I wish I were that person who would turn away from food when stressed. But I am who I am.

I want to feel the feelings that are swirling around my head and my body. I don't want to ignore those feelings by numbing them with food. And I think i'll try doing that with deep breaths.

I will think of you and pray for you!

I've been eating my feelings in a big way this week in my complete and paralyzing fear of my first marathon coming up, plus job stress. Ohhh, I know how you feel. Heck, I reach for chocolate even when BRENT has job stress.

here's wishing you a fantastic last day and a great send-off from WMF!
