Out of my comfort zone

Team Froglogic recommends you get out of your comfort zone.  I'm afraid that I dived into the deep end of the pool.  I was comfortable at work, then my world was turned upside down by another tsunami I have no control over.  I'm feeling a bit like a half drowned rat.  Tomorrow is the start of my new adventure.  I'm nervous but hopeful.  Tonight I encountered another situation.  I tackled the project and it did not go well.  Again out of my comfort zone.  However, this morning I had an opportunity to play Frisbee and push kids on the swing with two of the grand kids.  I also had a delightful visit with one of my daughters who is teaching me how to crochet more stitches.  It was a delightful morning.  One of the challenges of PTSD is recognizing that a bad moment is not a bad day.  A bad event isn't my whole life.  There are pivotal moments in every life where a seemingly small decision has major repercussions.  I'm learning to adjust to a new reality which starts tomorrow.

You got this. Even if everything goes wrong, which it won't, you'll make it through.
