One other thing I miss is taking mom to adult day camp for seniors for 1/2 a day. It must be the separation anxiety felt by parents at the beginning of the school year, which is adding to other things.
There's also a huge void left by a renovation project, which is complete.
Hi Hugs: Yes, I definitely feel some anxiety any change of season. Just when I'm getting used to a season, it goes and changes on me - lol. I fret about things I have to do or about things I will have to do. That's why a list works for me, doesn't feel so chaotic with things written down or thought about in order of priority so I don't feel stressed. I remember when the children started school in Sept. and how I felt just as excited as they were. Took a wk. or so to get into the routine again and things calmed down. Unusual symptoms? Not really, just the generalized anxiety sort of feeling I usually get.
Sorry you aren't feeling well right now and hope it is o.k. Let us know how it goes.
I love fall. Which isn't quite here yet but is just around the corner. Not just the leaves changing and a different more heavy feel to the air but everything about it. The deer in my back yard are fat from a summer of easy picking. I don't do well with the heat, (rheumatoid arthritis) so this is my time of year. I have been harvesting the garden and doing it by myself since My sweetie isn't here right now. The two of us put it in but only one of us is taking it out. I love the solitude. Just me pulling up things and digging things and picking apples. We did get some of it done before she had to go so I'm not doing it alone and I have friends coming to pick apples. Bears helped themselves too. Pressing apples right now to use the little ones. So far I have made ten gallons of apple juice. Mornings are beautiful before the sun blazes down from the clear sky.
Am I going to miss Summer? Yes of course but I have projects for winter that will make it pass, and I can pick and choose when to go out in it. I look forward to starting plants in march to get a jump on next years short growing season.
There really is two ways of looking at everything. Negative or positive. I'm finding myself more positive and that is making life easier. I'm enjoying things like a morning coffee more than I used too. Little accomplishments are that now not chores that have to be done. And always there is the reward in a job well done.
Hoping Hugs that there is nothing wrong but anxiety. You are in a bit of an upside down world right now with renovating.
Although I'm not attending school this fall, nor starting a new job, could it be I, and many others feel the collective uncertainty of the fall? When I was younger, this was a time of great fear, as I would begin new things.
I've lost 14 pounds, and don't feel right with nausea and stomach ache. I'm just waiting for the results of an ultrasound to see if somethings going on. August was a stressful month, and as thankful as I am for the weight loss I was planning, I wish it was more gradual.
I might be in the panic cycle, as I struggled with over-reaction to a couple of other physical ailments which aren't problems(a burnt finger and knee pain).
Is anybody fearing the fall uncertainties, and mourning the summer losses with unusual symptoms?
