It is not good to be stressed on holiday, but I am. Stressed serving my parents and ensuring they’re comfortable. Stressed serving my mother-in-law. Stressed sleeping on the couch again, all of our rooms occupied by guests. Stressed by noise. Stressed by bears and dangerous dogs. Stressed by the cost of living. Stressed by the kids. The list goes on. I don’t feel rested at all. I’m on edge, my heart physically agitated in my chest, causing me to lay awake in the middle of the night.

My commiserations. It’s not an easy state to be in. Insh’Allah it will change for the better.
