Glassy eyes
I woke up this morning my eyes really hurting, I felt all this pressure around them. I looked in the mirror my god do I look like shit. My eyes had this gloss over them, it was like I was drinking all night but I wasn't. What the hell is wrong with me, I am probably coming down with something. That is all I need right now to deal with a cold to drag me down.
I thought I would go to the store and buy some fruit, O.J. and a bunch of healthy things quick after work, praying no one will see me, I am telling you I didn't look good. I think everyone was in that store that I knew, almost all of them said you don't look so good is there something wrong, are you sick? So, I am in the store dodging people that I knew, quickly turning the other way so they didn't see me, it is funny now that I think about it. I just have this in my head if people see me that way, they think I am having a hard time with my divorce. Honestly, I am having a hard time but I don't want them to know about it and feel sorry for me. That is the last thing I want is people to feel sorry for me. Or be the talk of the town like I saw Tammy in a store she looked terrible she isn't handling her divorce very well. By the way I live in a small town where every person knows about everything. I do have friends and family helping me deal with it, so I am lucky there. I should be worrying only about myself and not what other people are thinking about my situation. I am working on that I have this list on things I like to change about myself, that is for another time to vent about.

I had the same thing, still do. I think that it's because of the changes in the weather. The heater kicks on for the first time and all that dust that collected gets blown around the house. Maby that is whats burnin' your eyes...
I know what you mean, I didn't want to leave the house for a long time. I didn't want to face the world so distressed, or not looking my best. But I got over it after a few months. Small towns are like that I know, but thank God for small towns though.

I know what you are going through as far as the cold... I'm just getting over it. Almost 2 weeks of it. Has to be the worst that I can remember having.
As far as your divorce....You can always seek some help and kind words here. It's been almost 14 years since mine, but I can offer a kind ear and sort of a shoulder to lean on...

Thank you, that is always good to know. Sometimes it's nice to get different views because we all go though it differently. Thank you both!!
