ten things tuesday

Linking up with Ten On Tuesday this week.

This week's topic is 10 Things You Stress About that You Didn't Stress About 10( or 15 or 20!) Years Ago.

1) Health. I didn't really stress about my numbers or hormonal changes. But now it's happening.

2) Chin hair. Along with the hormonal changes are the appearances of the occasional chin hairs. Blah.

3) My parents. As they get older, I find myself slipping into a co-caretaker role. I worry about their health.

4) Finances. Oddly, I make more but I don't save more.

5) Retirement. Someday I would love to be able to retire. I'm glad I started a 403b fund a few years ago. But as a singleton, I worry about my financial future.

6) The environment. I was reading a winter forecast and I am a firm believer in climate change affecting our winters. And our summers. And the wacky weather.

7) Technology. Especially at school. Keeping abreast of the latest gradebooks and planbooks and innovations to use in the classroom.

8) Politics. This political climate is depressing.

9) Technology. Again, really, this time it's stuff around the house--like backing up files and keeping track of cords and passwords and stuff.

10) Clutter. I stress about the mess that surrounds me. Yet I am not really doing anything pro active to solve that situation.

I could have written a lot of these. It's so easy to fall victim to malaise, isn't it? Well, for what it's worth, Miss Kwiz, you're not alone in these concerns.
