I know - bad timing :( I'm sorry.

I'm posting this here so you guys know, but I didn't want to make a big deal about it on the boards. Just - the events of the past couple days - some of them taking place over PM - have me questioning whether or not I'm as good of a person as I think I am/try to be. I'm more upset and have cried more today than any time in the past two weeks.

I need to get offline. I need to seperate myself from all this crap. I'm sorry that that affects you guys in getting the admin work done.

Be back in a few days.

It'll all be fine here Estel. Don't worry about this place at all.

I'm truly sorry about all the crap you're having to put up. It upsets me because you don't deserve it. :hug:

No - I've overreacted. I don't know why I let this affect me so much. I guess I'm kinda like Hal - I let my borders down here, so something unexpected like this hurt more than it should have. Sorry for being such a pest about it and letting my emotions run both me, and anyone within "hearing" distance, ragged.

I'll still be here tomorrow, at least for the admin side of things. Something like getting my feelings hurt shouldn't stop me from doing my job.

:hug:

Well I can't agree totally with your statement that you overreacted. Maybe just the bit about "I'm gone" but you had every right to be upset. You're only human. :hug:

If you need a day off tomorrow, by all means take it, okay?

:hug: I hope some time out helps the perspective.

Maybe if you keep clear of the (few) TORC related threads it may also help? They're engaging reading but the resultant stress level rise isn't worth it in the grand scheme of things.

Stress.... it's a killer for us all :hug: Recuperate and eat lots of chocolates and generally spoil yourself.
Looking forward to seeing you back soon (and I do second Leoba's suggestion)

:hug:

I'm going to lock this thread and move it to deleted threads storage sometime this afternoon if there are no objections :)

Getting in here before you lock it... :)

Estellie, I'm sorry for the part I had in raising your stress levels. :( But don't worry about the admin job, you've been doing brilliantly and deserve a break. I'm less pressured at work now so I should be able to step back in. :)

:hug:
