Normally I would dishing about what's ok with me this week, but I would lying to myself if I decided that all was ok. Because sometimes life is just meh. Yeah I said it, meh. Not great, good, or even ok, its just meh.
Sometimes you just need to crawl in bed at 8pm with your pup (dressed as a ladybug) and watch TV.
Sometimes, no matter how you try to explain it to them, your spouse will not get your work stress.
Sometimes you just need to cry to get it out.
Sometimes you will feel all alone even when you're surrounded by people.
Sometimes eating two heaping scoops of chocolate ice cream are just what the doctor ordered.
Sometimes your hair and face will be a hot oily mess no matter what you do.
Sometimes when you are craving pumpkin cream cheese Einstein's will still be out of it.
Sometimes what you want most in the world seems to be the hardest thing to get.
Sometimes you just have to trust in God and follow the path he has set for you. (even when its hard)
Sometimes life is just meh.
OH those sometimes posts....everyone is allowed to have a MEH and GRAY day!
ReplyDeleteAcknowledge it, and then look for the sun! Meh will turn into marvelous!
Puppies and ice cream ALWAYS make things better!
Love your blog and I'm totally intimidated by your lawyer-ness. Constitutional Law was one of my FAVORITE classes in college.
ReplyDeleteJust stopping by to thank you for participating in the Secret Santa Swap. I don't know about you but I can't wait for Christmas!
You're right - sometimes life is just 'meh.' And pretending that it's not doesn't change that! Thanks for being real. We all have our not-so-great days/periods of time in life, and I think sharing that is what helps us through it. Eat that ice cream, girl! And cry as often as you need to. It's healing. Tomorrow is another day, and hopefully things will start looking up soon:)
ReplyDeleteSigh this sounds like me these days, but I'm hoping November will be a lot better ;-)
ReplyDeleteI TOTALLY understand every single thing you wrote. And, I'm glad you're not sugar-coating things, pretending it's all okay when it's not.
ReplyDeleteEasier said than done, I KNOW. But, this too shall pass. Remember that, friend.

I hope life will look up for you again soon! We all go through these phases and it will never get old to just sulk for a bit and take some emotional R&R for yourself!
ReplyDeleteOk, you did it again, you hit the nail on the head with this post! I am right there with you hun...yesterday was one of those "work days" for me, I tried to vent it out to the hubby, but I don't think he really, REALLY got it. Where is the Hell Yeah, I agree button when you need it. I LOVE your blog so much. I feel like I know you and we have never even met. I had to give you a shout-out on my Blog last night, because for the time I was away, I was thinking man, I have got to make time for my daily dose of "Illegal Blonde". Thanks for sharing, your posts are always, always worth reading.

Hey twin, I am sorry you are having a rough time! I will always understand your stress if you ever need support. And I also understand the need for ice cream. Lucky or not for me, there is a Baskin Robbins within walking distance of my house.
ReplyDeleteIm there with you- here in NY we are suffering the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, a storm of epic, record breaking proportions. Not everyday makes you smile and its OK to just scream out loud sometimes!

SO glad I came across your blog... a girl after my own heart! I have to say I love how genuine this post is...it's good to know as girls we're not alone in some of these exact same feelings, even if the feeling is just "meh"
ReplyDeleteThanks for opening your heart! Can't wait to continue exploring your site. Keep up the great work.
