Back to reality

It's been a looooong time since i've posted. In that time I became a wife. I went to Jamaica on my honeymoon, and I fell in love with my husband all over again. Life is great. And yet, right now I feel oddly unsettled. My soul feels tired. I don't know how else to describe it. But I know it's entirely because of my job.
When I am home, with the hubs, I feel on top of the world and blessed beyond measure. But it's always there. Somewhere in my subconcious - a feeling of dread and discontent. Little matters become big issues. I feel inadequate. It's a suffocating feeling.
I work with a group of people with huge personalities. They are all great in certain ways and awful in certain ways. I try to block them out. Block out any drama they bring or comments they make. But it's very, very distracting. I am very easily distracted.
This entry is a bit rambling and muddled. That's because I am trying to work this out in my head as I type. I wonder if I might have an attention deficit issue. I feel no drive. I feel no motivation. I cannot prioritze at the moment. It's confusing and frustrating. Is it because I just don't care? Is that terrible?
There are people in the world who believe that if you do what you love, the money will come. I just don't know if that's true. I wish it was. But what do I love? I love animals. I love my family. I love my friends. I love feeling like i'm making a difference and that i'm appreciated. I love to feel like i'm good at what I do. I don't feel that right now. I don't feel like i'm succeeding right now. I think i'm just getting by.
I am sure that some of my emotions stem from the inevitable let-down after a major event. And they don't get much more major than your wedding day. But I -
Okay, update. My mom called. My sweet, wonderful mom who can sense my sadness all the way from Florida. She makes my soul feel better. Mom's are like that. It's a magic power that I can only hope I will have with my children.
I am going to make moves. I am going to confront issues. I am going to beat this because every moment I spend feeling down, is a moment wasted.
Here I go...
