Feeling Low

You ever have one of those days where nothing seems to go right?

Well, I seem to be having one of those days today. It's not that I've had a lot go wrong. In fact, it's been a pretty standard day over all. For whatever, reason, I'm just feeling down and to top it off, when I try to explain why it is that I'm feeling that way...it doesn't seem to come out right and I end up upsetting someone else. Yeesh!

I don't understand where things are getting lost in translation. Sometimes it seems like it's better to pretend that everything is alright than to really express what I am feeling.

Sigh...

Hi sweetie -- I've been thinking about you a lot today and was even preparing to reply to an e-mail from you when you posted this.

*HUG* *HUG* *HUG*

Sometimes days just suck. And I totally get that feeling where if you can't be understood correctly, properly, as you INTEND, then you start to feel like you should just SHUT UP until tomorrow when maybe things will make sense again.

I'm sorry that you're having to endure the added frustration and disappointment of having upset someone else, but hopefully there's still wiggle-room in there to try to put a band-aid over it until tomorrow. (Or the weekend, whatever!)

Generally, on these kinds of days I retreat into a book or a random movie on television -- something scripted where I don't have to think about what I'm trying to say, because if I don't occupy my brain with following along with something else it'll think itself to death.

But on the off-chance that this is one of those rare occasions where you differ greatly from me, my phone is on and within reach should you need it.

*HUG* Tomorrow WILL be a better day. Promise!

Thanks Jen!

I'm feeling a bit better now. It was mostly me having a pitty party for myself. I'm sure you can understand how difficult that can be to explain to anyone else. LOL!!

I went and treated myself to a half hour massage which helped give me and my brain a time out.

Thanks again....you're awesome!

Jenn - so sorry you were having a rough day!! It can be so frustrating to not be able to articulate (even to yourself) what exactly is putting you in a funk! We can all relate! I hope you are feeling better today and that you feel a little bit of sunshine on your troubles so they don't look so bad. Big hug from your future sister-in-law! (((((HUG)))))
