Too Much Stress

While I am glad to have relieved myself from some stress this past year; I still have too much to stress over. I wish I had more time for my own stress relief therapy, but then that becomes another reason of stress for the time I could have spent in getting done other things that need to be done. .... Black Friday. I think I'm going to pass on that. I have had it in my mind to go shopping and shop like I shop any regular day I shop. However, it is the fact that I feel I have to delay my shopping or persuade myself into the Black Friday makes it more stressful. I had planned to go shopping this weekend, but my shopping was delayed again because I got sick and hit a few bumps in the road. Ugh and phew. I think I'm going to try to keep my mind set on shopping Tuesday and save the rest of the shopping online if I do shop it this weekend. Shoes. At times I feel I have enough, I realize I really don't have enough of something. I need more casual shoes and dress shoes. My black pumps are already worn out and besides wanting some regular dress casual pumps, I have also been looking at some adorable stripper pumps. I had my mind set on one pair of pumps, but then after taking another second look, they looked too punkish and hardcore gothic. It was complicating to look at, because they were laced with a bow, but the way they were designed and looked to fit just looked too punkish. There was another sating pair that I noticed where not only was it difficult to decide with the colors, but there was no link there when I clicked. Hopefully they will still be for sale through the 800 number. Then casual shoes... I need another regular pair of Mary Janes, some kind of winter shoe that isn't a boot, and a pair of casual sneakers that aren't really too tennis shoe looking and more casual looking............. So much other stress on my mind. So much to think about over the holidays. I haven't figured out anything definite yet, but may probably end up tagging along with my parents unless I find another restaurant for just Mitzi and I. I'm thinking about taking Mitzi to a cabin in Deep Creek to celebrate for Christmas but that is up in the air too. I don't even know which toys to get her yet. ........... As the Sarah Turns. I don't have much to say for now until I feel the need to. I am noticing some things and staying quiet for now. ...... Crafting stress. Although I never planned on doing anymore, I am going to make myself do one more show. I don't think I will have enough of an inventory, but I know I still have 2 tables and a rack of items to sell. Maybe some people won't notice how much I've sold or see it as picked over items. I still have plenty of cowells to sell that have yet to sell. There is so much to keep making that I don't know where to begin. I was thinking of trying my bags out again during spring and summer at festivals I havn't tried yet and getting fully stocked on those, but its another risk investment. I could spend more time making winter things. I just don't completely know what to do yet, but know I have plenty of things to do to keep busy as a crafter...... After the holidays will be where I will start thinking more of where to go from here. I have so much to think about to plan for and how I will work myself out over the next year and more. If I move, where will I move, and how will I make my game plan? Thoughts to postpone for now.
