A Grouchy Weekend Re-cap...

This was my photo I posted eating a bag of candy corn...self pity...

So the weekend came and went SUPER fast. It wasn't even a good weekend. Didn't even make it to church :(. We had two soccer games one in poway at 3 in the afternoon and one on Sunday. Both games we lost, not sure how our team started off so great and the last few games have not been so good. I know today though there coach is going to ream them. She was pretty mad yesterday after the game. Then there is our house, uggggg this house. To many projects started and not ONE of them finished. I feel so displaced. For me personally I have a brain that needs constant tasks. I am not a relaxer or someone who can just "lounge" and do nothing. My baking is put on hold as my kitchen is in chaos. My decorating for the fall is put on hold as the living room still needs to be re-painted. My scrapbook room is all messed up as we tried to touch up the walls with the WRONG color paint. So now the WHOLE room has to be painted. The thought alone of having to move everything is NUTS. So all this left me on Sunday in a REALLY bad mood. Pretty much just laid in bed all day annoyed. I am sure I made Evan's weekend not happy. I do have so much to be grateful for, I really do. Sometimes though I get in these funks and its so hard to snap out of them. So that's where I am at today trying to get out of my funk. Trying to find the positive happiness in my house. Trying to work on PDW cause that makes me happy. Maybe a trip to target will help. On a side note I did get to help out this past Saturday at the queen bee market and that alone made me REALLY happy. I love being surrounded by all that handmade goodies. So my friends how do you get out of a "bad mood". I would love to know. With only weekends for evan to finish this house I am afraid it's not going to be done till next year and that thought makes me cringe. So on that note...Happy Monday..right?????

We're all entitled to a "free" funk day from time to time! I am a person of organization so I would feel displaced as well in your situation, so I sympathize! Two years ago we had to have our kitchen floor replaced thanks to a leaky fridge that ruined it and I could not do Thanksgiving dinner or any baking for about 2 weeks in November and it made me insane!! I really hope things pick up for you so you can start enjoying your weekends again! :)

I think we are too hard on ourselves. We can have bad days/weeks, etc. and that is okay! I think we feel bad for feeling bad and have to justify that we are "blessed" when even the "blessed" can have bad days! I understand completely the funk! I just ride the wave...lol...and allow the funk and the pity party, etc. because I know it will pass, and it usually does, although sometimes not as fast as my family would appreciate. Good luck, Michelle. Hang in there...even if it isn't all the way it "should be", take a deep breath and know that it will eventually all work out...
