Saturday Six - Episode 166

1. Have you ever talked to your doctor about stress levels in your life?
Yes, I have and there is not that much that can be done to relieve the stress. See my post entitled “Do You Think I Am Stressed Out?

2. How likely are you to “let go” of something that stresses you out?
Very unlikely.

3. Does your family or your work cause the most stress in your life? Do you think your family members or co-workers realize how much stress they generate?
The stress is generated by the lay-off and my transitioning which is happening at the same time.

4. Take the quiz: Will You Live to 100?


Chance You'll Live to 100: 36%

Okay, so living until you're 100 is a long shot...
But who knows how good medicine will get in the future.
Take a little better care of your body, and you'll might actually see the triple digits.



5. When you think that you are at the breaking point, are you more likely to have an angry blow-up, a self-contained meltdown, or something in between? When was the last time you had such a moment?
A self-contained meltdown. Once again see my post “Do You Think I Am Stressed Out?

6. When you’re stressed out, what is the first clue someone who knows you well is likely to pick up on?
I am not my usual cheery self, I am quite and withdrawn.

  1. 71% likely to reach 100. 100 is looking pretty likely for you right now. You've made your health a priority. So kick back, keep doing what you're doing, and enjoy the great life you've made for yourself.
    And you might get to see what the world is like 70, 80, or even 90 years from now.

    Altho we'd totally have to reword this as I turn 50 next week...something like "And you might get to see what the world is like 20, 30, or even 40 years from now."

    Um...that's weird!!!
