According to www.astrology.com.au, here is my horoscope for tomorrow:
Tuesday - May 20, 2009
While not a full blown crisis, it is a time of strain and tension, which can be somewhat debilitating to your health. A partial retreat in order not to deplete yourself and your strength is beneficial right now. You may be upstaged by other people or events which occur now.
This just about sums it up. "Debilitating to your health" is right. I got food poisoning from Subway on Saturday. The first symptoms to manifest were dizziness and tingling/numbness of the face. I was convinced I was having a stroke! You know you're stressed when your reaction to a strange ailment is to immediately conclude you are stroking out!
I do need a retreat. This week I've been going easy on myself...laying off the to-do lists and just taking it as it comes. I still need to fold laundry and clean the sink, but I'm relaxed and enjoying myself right now...so work can wait, right? I need to give myself a break and enjoy the simple things for a while. So what if the house gets dusty and I don't get to my homework until Thursday? So what if I ate chips instead of veggies before dinner? I am my own worst critic, and until recently I have been relentless. I need to cut myself some slack.
This upcoming weekend I'm looking forward to grilling out, sitting in the back yard, catching up on some good reads, and taking in the sights at the zoo and one of our local state parks. It's back to the simple things in life for me...no more over analyzing or over complicating things. The sky is blue, the sun is shining, and the future will be whatever I make of it.

OH yucky. Michael just got over food poisoning. I hope you feel better soon. That is some nasty stuff. Thankfully I have only had it once.
I don't know how to tell you that thinking you are having a stroke is not a result of you being over-stressed...it's more like par for the course of being yourself!! That's okay, it's what makes you lovable!!!!
