Yesterday was a good day.
I feel like I don’t come on here much to share the good days, and that is how the picture I paint becomes so skewed.
But yesterday was one of the good days. I have been feeling myself lifting out of the generalized funk I fell into. I don’t really know what changed to help me get out, but that is usually how these things work. One day I just start feeling better.
Yesterday I had a good conversation with the parent of a child we’re trying to help.
I managed to fit a run in between work and picking up my kids, and even though it was hot, the sun his behind a cloud just enough to make it bearable.
My kids ate the “super hero smoothie” I made for them, packed with two cups of fresh spinach. It’s amazing how much better I feel when I know they are eating healthy food.
My daughter had finished her homework at after care. That always makes things easier.
Neither of them got upset when I left to eat dinner with some friends. It was the first time I’ve been out with friends since before school started over a month ago. It was nice to catch up. Heck it was nice to just be with other adults who weren’t my husband. Also, the dinner I ordered was amazing.
I got home all energized from seeing people and had a hard time getting to bed, but it’s okay because today is Friday. Friday is my favorite day.
And those all some of the reasons why yesterday was a good day.
When was your last good day? What made it a good one?
Wonderful and fabulous. It is always odd how all at once without any obvious changes a day is so different from the days before. Hope this wasn’t a ‘one off-er’ for you but the start of a trend.
I find my world is trending positive these days too… had several weeks of ‘not clever’ but now life is better and I am appreciating the new trend!
Yay for good days. I also tend to cycle through “blah” periods and then the blah lifts and I feel…happy. I don’t know what causes either one to come or go but I’m trying to just accept that its something intrinsic in my brain chemistry.
Yay for good days! Thanks for sharing 🙂
Good days are the best… So hopeful! If I don’t yell at the kids, it’s a good day. My fuse is very short these days…
Glad to hear today it’s going well too!
I love everything about this post. You needed a day like that. We all do! 🙂
My day off today was pretty awesome, actually! I totally needed that after 6 weeks of exhausting pace at work. My husband went to work late so I got to run at 6am by myself, then brought Stella to school, My best friend came over after dropping her kid off at pre-k as well, and our 20 month olds actually got along for 3+ hours while we had the longest conversation we’ve had since PRE-kids 4 years ago. Harvey took a good nap, I got some work done and laid out in the sun for awhile, I took a long walk with the kids after school, and I hung out with my family tonight…and now at 7:30 I’m heading out for a few drinks with friends. i’ll take it!
So many things to feel good about. I’m so glad your weekend started on such a positive note, and I hope it’s continuing.
Yay! Hope this day buoys you up. It’s so good to be reminded that it’s the little things that can make such a difference.
