Blue, grouchy day...

Do you ever have one of those days where you feel like you could cry at the drop of a hat? Well, I'm having one. My weight is back up above 200, I'm tired and I'm overscheduled (my own fault). I know that is the problem. Lucia is sick, Dennis is sick, hopefully I am NOT getting sick, but we're at the point of our busy schedule where there is too much going on and I need to slow down... It seems like every 6 months or so, I hit this wall and can't seem to learn from it! It isn't anything that I can't get beyond, but just one of those days where everything seems 10x worse than it really is. I could definitely use a mental health day... alas, it is not an option right now! (sigh)... it'll all be better tomorrow, I know. Right now though, I just want to run away and have quiet time to myself! But... 2 conference-calls and a meeting are on the schedule instead. Grump, grump, grump.

I really dislike that feeling of being trapped when the schedule is packed tight, so you have my complete sympathy. Take it one appointment or meeting at a time, get as much rest as you can, drink your water and it will all be better soon.

Hang in there!

I'm sorry your having one of those days! Been there, done that...too many times. Take a few deep breaths, and carry on! You can do this, look at what you have accomplished in the last year! Hugs!

I will occasionally have days like that, too, especially as the seasons are changing. Just take a deep breath and try to give yourself 15 complete minutes of quiet time ... or maybe a pedicure??

Amy said...

Hang in there. Sometimes just letting the frustrations out seems to help...

Above or below 200, you still look fantastic!

UGH -- the Onederland bounce is the most evil of all bounces!! That would put me in a foul mood, too. But don't worry. . you'll be back in Onederland very soon.

OK, to cheer you up, think about your adorable dress and new purse that are on their way to you right now. :) You'll be rocking that outfit on a sunny day soon! :)

~~~~~HUGS~~~~~~

Did you feel it!

Kristen said...

hang in there sarah! I did the onederland bounce for about 2 weeks, before I comfortably got into the 1's. I know it's so hard to see a 2 again, but don't worry the 1 will come back soon and stronger then ever! xoxo

Sorry you're having a rough day. If it's any consolation, I gave you the sunshine blogger award because even on a bad day, you see the light. Hope you feel better about everything tomorrow.

Every time I read your blog, I see those amazing pictures of you and I am so inspired. I hope you look at them too and really, really see how far you've come! You are beautiful at ANY size, but you have definately come a long way. I am wondering with all of the exersize if you are getting enough to eat? Perhaps you are not eating enough and then chosing high-cal foods to deal with the hunger and give you energy.

I have those days often, and you know what I do....I cry when I feel like it and it makes me feel better. The other thing that makes me feel better is to talk to a friend and get a little encouragement. I just read all your comments and I think that's what you've got, a little encouragement. I hope the feeling passes soon. And about the onderland thing, I can't even wrap my mind around being close enough to a one to bounce there. You've come so far, you look fabulous. Hang in there.

Can I share your garbage can? I'm having one too!
I hope you feel better and get some rest and all the sick peoples get better.

(((Hugs)))

Hey Sarah, btw thanks for the post on my blog! You are my first commenter! lol :) I made a lot of updates today and also added a link to your blog, if you don't mind!

I can totally relate to that feeling. And Oscar the grouch is a good icon to use to express it, haha! :) May your schedule thin out so you can BREATHE!!!

Ahh babes,
I think this is all part of being a woman (ugh!) and a part we could do without. Run down, over stimulated and over worked (over stimulated? hmm not sure that sounds right lol..) Anyway, I have the most heartfelt sympathy for you. Have a cry - it will do you the world of good. Thinking about you here in Oz. Mwah and a hug.

This was me the other day. Everything was stressing me out and I just wanted to cry and go to sleep or go lay on the beach by my self. Every once in a while we just need to slow down and regroup! I hope your feeling better today!
