There's the element I have some control over, but there's the element I have no control over, which is work and long-distance family-foo and the very real daily needs of my family. The way my job has suddenly eaten me since I came back from my trip was unexpected. That's causing a lot of reprecussion in the rest of my life. I'm an advocate of work-life-balance especially since I am the main parent in the evening. However, right now I have no balance and no bandwidth for more. The stuff going on with my sister is hitting me hard and I'm too tired to process it very well.
I've pretty much topped out on my "reacting to shit" tolerance. I guess the good part of being too tired to care about any more drama is that I've become the "calm" one when new stuff hits the fan. If no one is dying, I really can't muster any excitement.
