I checked other. I've reduced stress as much as possible in my life and in our family, but of course it does get busy. I focus on my kids and their activities. Running them to and from meetings. Laura's not that busy, which is fine, what she wants - downtime at home. Nina is a little too busy but she's managing her time well. As I've shared my biggest stressful area is my health - have to watch what I eat very carefully. I walk a fine line with it all each day/week but if I keep other stresses to a minimum, then I do well. I also carve out time just for me - a good book to read, a hot soak in the tub, walking the dog. If I had to choose one thing that cuts stress around here it would be our sweet dog Hope. She has this way of just sighing when things get hectic. As if to say - oh stop what you're fussing about, sit down here on the couch and rub my belly. Works everytime! We all say she has it so easy.

Worry is what stresses me. I know, it might sound weird, but that's the truth! You name it, job performance, college, the future, my girlfriend, I could go on. :( :x :(

My wife's health has been very stressful for her - and in turn stressful for me. And she is also a big-time worrier. But I am praying for her to have better health and less worries.

Does having to get out of bed count as a stressor? :)

I would have to say work for the last 11 months. I will be transferred to another job next week and things should be getting better soon. :D

"Do not fear, for I am with you; Do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, Surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand." (Isaiah 41: 10) Words to take to heart!

My biggest stress is dealing with the INS, and immigration lawyers.. not a day goes by where I dont have to worry about some new paper or huge sum of money they want :roll:
