In all the countries I've visited and lived in, I've found they all have different problems, requiring different solutions. <br /><br />Although I will say that I consider pretty much any 1st or 2nd world country to be "better" than the Middle East in a general way. But then, being a woman who is also an Atheist, I would.Janiecehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14190655869710465713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9112925820320944611.post-60877099256705888102011-01-20T16:02:16.428-07:002011-01-20T16:02:16.428-07:00You BET I retained my citizenship.

In the meantime, part-time hermit will have to do.<br /><br />Honestly, if you're feeling anti-social, I see no problem putting off what you can until the mood passes. If it's work related stress with a deadline involved, minimize what you can until the deadline passes, then put your phone on "busy" for a while. It's not always doable, but sometimes if you look at things with the question "can this be put on hold for a week" you'll be surprised how many things can.Anne C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09444051201220766948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9112925820320944611.post-87202630541260274232011-01-18T17:02:37.094-07:002011-01-18T17:02:37.094-07:00Terry, it's an ASD fatal error, and reinstalla...Terry, it's an ASD fatal error, and reinstallation is not fixing it.

If so, do so.<br /><br />I'm not quite as lucky I suppose, since a work project can completely rule my brain and Bad Times at work generally lead to Bad Times at home. Especially now that work is at home.<br /><br />On the other hand, things that pop up at home also can rule my brain and work gets about as much attention as home does when the coin is flipped.<br /><br />I suppose it bodes poorly for me that the two are so closely tied and a crisis (or something good) can equally impact either work or home life.<br /><br />This will all be easier the second week of Feb, which I will spend on a beach in Hawaii with wife.mc and work will cease to exist.<br /><br />TTerry Mchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09268275610865280345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9112925820320944611.post-1822980976103995152011-01-18T16:15:35.537-07:002011-01-18T16:15:35.537-07:00Why the "or"?
