stress

I had taken the time (time that I didn't have) to compose a long post about the stress I'm feeling, and that led inot what I'm feeling about the upcoming funeral, and ended up with a little about how I feel about my grandmother's death. But I clicked where I shouldn't have, and now it's gone.

I don't have fifteen minutes to spare to try to recreate it.

Nobody has any idea how I'm feeling or why.

I don't often share my *feelings*.

I don't remember losing a whole post more than once or twice ever.


Why now?




This isn't helping any.



It was one of those rare posts where I found enough words to make my thoughts understandable. Partly because I was working though it at the time.

Goodbye. See you in a few days.

I'm so sorry, Kevin. Even tho you had the benefit of working it out, your friends are disappointed that we can't share what you had to say.

I'm glad you and Cyn have each other to depend on.

Working through it is the important part. No need to let lj add stress.

Take care.

Yeah, but I really wanted to share.

I'm sorry for the added frustration, Kevin. Argh! I do agree with the first half of whorlpool's comment though - that working through it is really the most important part. Even though you wanted to share that with us and express more here than what you usually do, at least you did work through it for *you*.

Big big big hugs to you.

oh sweetie
i'm sorry~
{{{{k}}}}

this may be one of those times
that you can let go and trust
that there are those who know
at least a little of what you're going through
whether you can tell them or not~
and you know what? it may have been good for you
to compose that post for yourself-
writing it all out and working through it-
that is important and may have served its purpose~

i'm thinking of you and wishing you the best~
*love*

I'm sorry you're going through this. Hold on to Cyn -- she will be your rock, just as my wife was when my father died.

Correction: you'll be each others' rocks.

Good wishes and peace to you.

*peace*

It helped me to write after my grandmother's death, but then, it was the working through that was the cleansing part.

You've got a lot on your plate these days Kevin. Some times, some rest and a break from the norm helps.

*shakes head sadly*

I think we all could use a break....I wish I could arrange for us all to have a nice trip somewhere quiet....

Take care, and take your time. We'll still be here for you when you return. Peace be with you.

See you. Take care of yourself.

(((((((Kevin))))))))
Whorlpool is correct I believe....

Perhaps a day spa treatment and a weekend in a cabin with no TV or phones will help?

hopefully you'll find some peace, even if it's outside of your sharing.

Me, I tend to scotch good writing so often, through glitches, bad keys or clicks, that I open notepad, if I want to keep what I'm writing, save it there before I try to post. This also helps if LJ experiences glitches or anything--you'll have your own backup--I got the habit from a wiki place run by (lj user="charles"), and it hasn't failed me yet.

Of course, living LJ through the library computers precludes all that, so I wind up at the whim of fate as far as that goes...

you found the words once, and you recognized it.
drive carefully.
we're still here.
