Here Comes Twitchy

My eyes are twitching. Thankfully they take turns and are not synchronized YET. I am afraid that when I talk to people they can see the twitching. I have been getting winked at a lot lately……


I have been dreaming that my jaw is locked shut and I can’t open my mouth. I then alternately dream that I am clenching my teeth so tightly that they start to break. I wake up convinced I'm spending the day in a dentist's chair.

The hubby says that all night long I flex and point my toes. I have no idea I am doing this but I do sometimes feel like my legs are rubber bands and I am trying to stretch them out.

Do you think I might be stressed?

Here’s the funny thing. I have had two very stressful careers in my life. I am now on my third career that I chose to switch to because it was the least stressful. I work normal hours and see my family more than I have ever been able to in the past. I understand my work, it’s enjoyable and I am good at it. It’s nowhere near as stressful as some of the other things I have done. So what’s all the twitching, clenching and restlessness all about? Honestly, I think I might one of those people who needs stress in order to feel their best.

I have so much more to say, but guess what? Instead of the kids staring down a carton of ice cream this time, they are sitting at the table staring down an apple waiting to be sliced. I've told them I'l be there in a minute 15 of them ago.  Also, lucky me the dryer just buzzed so you know what that means – time to right side out some pant legs......
and I’m wondering if it’s not stress, but in-a-RUT-itis instead?

Off I go to cut up an apple with my twitchy eyes- YIKES.
