Stressed.

I am still trying to rest, and discard the burdens that I wasn't meant to bear, but there are several things that are seriously stressing me out right now.

1. I cannot find my SLR camera. Anywhere. No, it isn't a digital, but it's the only SLR that I have. I can't find it anywhere at the house and scoured the apartment as well. The last time I remember having it was for Kelsey's senior pictures. A major bummer because I was hoping to have it for Thanksgiving. Plus, I hate that it might still be at the apartment while the rental agency is showing the apartment. Suck.

2. Money. The economy is really starting to stress me out. Justin was off work by 3pm today because there just wasn't any more work for him to do. My dad stopped by my work today and told me that he's applying for some jobs with the school district. He owns his own contracting business with VERY wealthy clients, and he said that while he's still doing jobs that he already has booked, he hasn't had any new calls for painting, decking, stonework, or remodels. Basically, people aren't doing ANY cosmetic construction, and are even electing not to do some needed structural work unless it's an emergency. And we're just at the BEGINNING of the financial recession. This worries me because a) we just bought a house, and b) most of my family is in construction, with several family members being in cosmetic construction.

3. Thanksgiving. There is still so freaking much to do, and I'm tired and all I want to do is watch Fringe.
