what's making me anxious today?

 Well... you guessed it.. work!

My project lead keeps making sooooooooo many comments on my document, it's annoying. And I'm in the background thinking... aren't we pretty sure this project is going to get shelved. So, I don't know if she's just that particular of a person or what. 

But I'm absorbing some of her anxious feelings. And she keeps sending it back for more 'work' and I meet with the people and have the same result.

I think she's told my boss she 'wrote' my document...which is false. And that it needed work. Which again is her opinion. 

I think that's what makes me the most nervous... she's in the same country as my boss and she's talking to him about my work. My biggest concern is anything that will affect my salary and my financial goals. I don't want to be put on a performance improvement plan!! 

Luckily, financially I will be okay.

I was doing the mental exercise of what would happen if I won hundreds of millions in the lottery. And when talking with my friend,  I realized I still felt a little trapped in my current expense box. I'm hoping this will change when I retire, but this is something to keep an eye on. 

It's still nice knowing that largely the only thing keeping me from my Big Audacious Goal is time, not these people. So I just have to put my game face on and last as long as I can. And remind myself, my empirical goal is just to stay employed!!! Not win any prizes! 

In other news, still enjoying life. Weeee!

It's a tough dance balancing work and enjoying life... I tell ya.
