I have the winter blues. I'm tired of wearing bulky sweaters and jackets. I'm tired of getting my shoes and pants wet by snow, slush, salt, and a bunch of other nasty stuff. I'm tired of it being dark when I leave work and when I wake up. I want to bust outside and smell the fresh spring air, wear flips and shorts, and get out and exercise! I want to soak up some rays of sun and increase my energy level!
I don't recall last winter being this difficult to get through. I guess the end is within reach, I just need to try to stay positive and sane until then.
I think this is affecting my mood all around me. I get upset about things at work, I snapped at one of my employees today when I'm normally very level-mooded (is that a word?) I got upset about a car with extremely loud music today at the gas station... I was mad, until I saw that there was a toddler in the back car seat. That child doesn't need to hear things that loud!
Argh.... ok, time to get focused on my positive thoughts for the rest of the night. Tomorrow is a new day, hopefully a happier one. :)
You have RAW too!!! Maybe it's a family thing! Cripes.
ReplyDeleteIt must be going around.
ReplyDeletehehe... RAW. I love it! I was down right angry one day last week when I was running late for class and had to speed walk to school in the bitter cold and wind. In fact, I was swearing at the weather the whole way there. Then I realized someone was walking behind me. I hope they didn't hear me!
ReplyDeleteOk, so I was determined to not be in a bad mood today, and to not let anything affect me. SUCCESS! How did I do it you ask? I sang like a mad man in the car on the way to work... i mean very loudly. I didn't even sing a song, I just made stuff up. I took a word I heard on the radio and made my own song using that word. I sang opera and country and rap and reggae and everything else in between. It was so much fun. It worked, I was in a good mood when I got to work and stayed that way all day. I will have to see if it works again tomorrow. :) I won't be able to do this if people are with me however. LOL
ReplyDeleteAMBER, I have found that I talk to myself lately too. I've caught myself several times with people right behind me. I wonder if I'm going crazy?
