Hi, how are you?
I hope you’re doing good. If that’s not the case, please feel free to say so. Don’t just say you’re ok. It’s ok to have a bad day. It’s normal. You know, my bad days used to be the worst. I couldn’t get out of bed and if I did, it was to turn on my TV or get something to eat. I would try to sleep all day or I would watch movie after movie until it was time for me to go back to sleep. I’d avoid everyone except for some people who I’d type with on skype. I wouldn’t even call them. Behind the keyboard I could still be happy and fun to talk to but I couldn’t change the expression on my face. My highs were always really high and my lows were really low. There was no in between. I had to learn that it was ok to feel bad and I should allow myself to have a bad day. I learned that after Hayley was born. I talked to other mothers and I heard from them that they had their moments without their child to stay sane. For one it meant taking a shower after she put the baby down. For someone else it meant going grocery shopping by herself, once a week. They also taught me that I will have bad days and the best way to deal with them is to face them. Instead of acting like it’s a good day, just see how the day goes. Sometimes I would just open the door and sit in our backyard with Hayley and enjoy doing nothing. I Allowing myself to have a bad day helped me. Now I have those “in-between’s” I didn’t have back then. But I also don’t have those very bad days. I do have the good days and I cherish them. Today was a very good day for me. I woke up and received a message from a friend a minute after. She came over with her daughter almost right away. I didn’t even have time to take a shower before she came but so what? :p We talked, we laughed, the girls watched frozen and we had lunch before they left at 1PM. Me and Hayley took a nap and now I’m here, writing this entry because I was too lazy to do it yesterday and forgot when my friend came over. Oops. But today was a good day for me. But back to you. How are you? How is/was your day? Is it just starting or is it almost to an end? I hope you will have a good day or enjoy what’s left of it. Having a bad day is like your battery is low. Take care of yourself and recharge so you can start tomorrow with a full battery and a big smile! (Sometimes recharging may take longer than just a day. If it does, take two days…) I’d love to hear what your thoughts/experiences are. Please let me know in the comments. Or send me an email by going to the contact page and filling in the form. Or talk to me on Social Media (The links are in the sidebar). Please share your weekly special with me with #MyWeeklySpecial. I can’t wait to see it! I’m a work in progress, just like everyone else!
