"Unsettled" feeling on yesterday's fast day

by deMuralist on 01 May 2013, 11:56

Yesterday was interesting. I had literally zero issues with hunger. I didn't linger on thoughts of food or what I would eat or roam around pinterest looking for good recipes.

But I had a slightly unsettled feeling most of the day. I was excessively worried about booking my DD's flight for her summer studies in Spain. I am not sure why it was bothering me so much, my boss had already found me the best price and we had it all ready for me to book, just needed to check the details with DD. It was a reasonably easy process. Then when I got home I found out that DS's roommate situation had fallen through, and that since his buddy had just told him yesterday that he was going to have to go into a lottery for a roommate. Now I actually think this is a good thing, but I know that it was hurtful to DS on several levels and it added to my feelings of being unsettled.

I think that the fact that it was a "fasting day" heightened the insecurity I felt.

It wasn't horrible, and certainly not unmanageable, but odd for me. It actually felt like a mild ache in the core of my body.

My sleep was not the best but not atypical either and I feel fine today. So it has passed. The ticket is purchased and DS has signed up for housing.
