Yesterday I lent a hand to Alan and his dad as they are (erecting) building a new steel building on his dad's site. I was up and down the ladder quite a bit, moving steel around, handing out tools and nuts and bolts. Most of the framework is up. Both of us are pretty sunburnt!
Here are a few pics:
We came home pretty tired. I was taking a shower when I was just overwhelmed with emotion. I know my anxiety is magnified when I am tired, but I just wasn't expecting that. I guess I should though...driving to the apartment after work or after being gone all day starts the anxiety kicking in to high gear. I know I won't feel 100% safe and relaxed until I am out of that apartment.
I am beginnig to think I may have to seek medical help for this anxiety. I know we have to stay here for at least 6 - 8 weeks, and I am trying to find the best way I can to cope. I don't want to take drugs, but it may come to that.

Have you contacted the Red Cross? Maybe someone there can help you talk it through and come up with some ways to cope with the fear and this upheaval. It's a lot for anyone to deal with, you know? Why don't you give them a call, Jen?
As for the subject, yeah it got my attention. LOL! And I cannot imagine constructing something like that. Wow.
