Self help

For various reasons, I was feeling rather low the last day or two.  My energy was gone, I was feeling very negative, I was dwelling on some things that I know better than to worry about.  Just a crappy time – I’ve been there before, I’ll be there again.

This morning I slept in a little bit (past 7 AM, it was awesome).  I cooked myself a semi-healthy breakfast (scrambled eggs wrapped in a tortilla, slipped a little on the pepper but that’s OK).  I went to two soccer games – my kids rocked it.  In the afternoon, I spent a couple hours volunteering for a half-marathon that will happen in the morning; it was the packet pick up.  This event benefits a local charity that I support and the other volunteers were really nice, it was good to be there.

I came home and decided to run a couple of miles (tomorrow I’m helping at the registration table and will not be running, I wasn’t planning to because I really can’t spend the money right now).  So I’m feeling happy with my day, feeling like a productive person again.  That’s a good thing.

I’m watching Sons of Guns which I think is really stupid but for some reason I can’t turn it off until I see them use the grenade launcher they are rebuilding (you know it will work, they just have to yell at each other for no reason first).  Early bedtime tonight since I have to be out the door at 5 something tomorrow morning 😛  Afterward I’m gonna hit the grocery store so I’m ready for the new week.
