Re: How would you handle this situation?
This happens to me so often.
Right now I'm working from home (I prefer this), content, comfortable and happily waiting on a new kitten that's joining us in a few days. I meditate every morning, do some crafting then set to work with Netflix on in the background. It's bliss, really it is, this morning was no different, but I've increasingly had to fight the feeling of waiting for the other shoe to drop.
Then this morning, I heard the post and went to get it and there was a letter to my husband from the NHS. I know he's healthy, and I'm 99% sure his only NHS interaction recently has been to ask about the flu jab.
Nevertheless, I went from 0 to panic in about half a second. I went to tell him the letter was there, he said he'd read it once he got up, at which point I spent 5 minutes with explosive diarrhoea that had come on from out of nowhere. 5 minutes after thatr he got up, mostly because he was aware I'd have The Fear.
The letter was to remind him to ask for a flu jab :/ Still a bit tired from the rush now, not to mention bloody livid with myself.
I always find that the happier I am, the more brittle the happiness tends to be.
