I had a huge supremely angsty post started, and was working on it when I decided to check job listings. I found a listing for a job that I am extremely interested in. So I applied. I would absolutely love to get this job, although it would mean some more big changes for me.
But since I havent blogged in 3 days heres a recap.
Work:
Saturday: Carried route that kicks my butt, but did it without help and was back before at least one carrier. Getting pretty good at the beginning of the route, just need to work out the kinks at the end.
Sunday: Amazon day. Day from Hell. Had not one but 2 panic attacks. We are all miserable at this point. I know at least two of us feel death is preferable to this madness.
Monday: (today) Super early start, did parcel run, then was going to be casing, but it was discovered that there were 2 hampers of parcels for one of the routes I know that got left behind, so I got sent out with those. Long day, but not as stressful, which is an improvement. Way too many parcels in general though. A couple of routes got parcel help and still had four hampers of parcels (all the routes got help and everyone was still slammed) :/ I can't believe how much stuff some people buy. One house I delivered to has 25 boxes on their porch between me and UPS. They get multiple parcels every day. I don't understand that level of online consumption.
Food:
I can't remember exactly what I have eaten over the last three days , but I know that in spite of me not being quite as on point with my dietary choices (I had "treats" on all three days) my blood sugar readings have been okay. I really need to get back to the more strict plan though, at least for a few weeks.
Mental:
I really wish I still had therapy tomorrow. I know I have my appointment on Friday, but that feels very far away. Sometimes I feel like I might be ready to start weaning myself off of the antidepressant, but then something happens and once again I am glad I have the assistance. This week has been rough, and I feel like I have emotional whiplash. I want to brainstorm some things before therapy though, so maybe having a couple of extra days is good.
I am so exhausted right now I doubt any further thoughts would be cohesive. On that note, I am done for the night.

Wow, Decmber must just be nuts for you guys. I kind of understand people's level of online consumption. For us Amazon is the ceapest place for diapers and formual. And for me, Amazon is great for Christams shopping because it's hard for me to get to a store. Needless to say we have relied on them a lot this season. And through them overworked postal workers. SOrry for the job security.
I feel like my comment came off snarky which it wasn't intended to. I do feel like Christmas can be a time of overspending and over-consumption and part of me was a bit disappointed to see USPS start Sunday deliveries. I can't imagine how physically taxing all those packages are.
I know you weren't being snarky. I think Amazon offers great deals and I LOVE that they have partnered with us to get the deliveries out. For the most part, I don't hate Sunday deliveries because it is an extra opportunity to pick up some hours. It doesn't lend itself to me getting to church though :/
Thanks for the Job Security! :)
