I love what I do and most of the people I work with. When I’m not working (my full time job) you can find me spending time with family, working around our hobby farm, looking for that tool I swear I just had, doing something that involves work or trying to figure out how to make “work” smoother, or just helping others with odd jobs when there’s time. 
It is going to be interesting to see how things will go with the stresses that comes from the calls we’ll go out on over time. ]]> 2023-09-26 00:57:39 UTC https://padlet.com/wsccems/1m644kq23tms97yx/wish/2720194822 A three legged table- balance mattschwemin https://padlet.com/wsccems/1m644kq23tms97yx/wish/2720222583 My wife and I always talk about trying to balance your table top. When stress hits you have to make sure your Physical, Mental and Spiritual are all balanced. No matter what you call any of those three, balance is key. Check in right now, of those three which one is off kilter, that might be effected by your stress level. Look to dive into that area that stress is hitting the worst. ]]> 2023-09-26 01:17:32 UTC https://padlet.com/wsccems/1m644kq23tms97yx/wish/2720222583 Video Games https://padlet.com/wsccems/1m644kq23tms97yx/wish/2720330874 I find video games are a great way for me to deal with stress, they can provide an escape, and with so many different games out now you can pretty much do anything.

I like to be outside and to be moving, getting my HR up and removing myself from the stressful situation. One of my favorite spots is Ludington State Park or Hoffmaster for something more local. hannahknestell https://padlet.com/wsccems/1m644kq23tms97yx/wish/2721221881 2023-09-26 13:15:06 UTC https://padlet.com/wsccems/1m644kq23tms97yx/wish/2721221881 lgn9099 https://padlet.com/wsccems/1m644kq23tms97yx/wish/2721488938 After long days I deal with stress by gaming with friends and talking about life with laughs. ]]> 2023-09-26 15:31:28 UTC https://padlet.com/wsccems/1m644kq23tms97yx/wish/2721488938 “That’s when the drinking problem started.” mcdougalljacob https://padlet.com/wsccems/1m644kq23tms97yx/wish/2721929737 My family is full of firefighters, police, morticians, etc. Sarcastic dark humor helps us all cope. A little bit like Ted Striker, it’s not always healthy, but it is funny. 

I think the important thing is that it helps us through those tough times to give us space and distance to unpack later. 
I find working out and meditation to be especially helpful in my daily practice of relieving stress.
Additionally having close friends that I can lean on over a beer or cup of coffee.

While the drinking problem joke is funny. I know for me when things are especially stressful I try to avoid chemical interventions because a bit like pain, the stress is there for a reason and needs to be worked through rather than masked.

It's one of the many ways I try to deal with stress. I usually hang out with the donkeys: Blondie, Teddy and Miley. Teddy is a hugger, he acts like a big baby if it can get him extra treats. Blondie is just a little old lady. She loves hanging out with her roommate Loki (he's a goat). Miley will do ANYTHING for a treat, she loves food. My boyfriend and I usually take the donkeys for a walk around the yard and talk about our day. ]]> 2023-09-26 20:19:50 UTC https://padlet.com/wsccems/1m644kq23tms97yx/wish/2721932635 Creating helps with stress.
