It's only 8:30 in the morning, and my day is already gone down hill. I have an older POS for a car. That constantly needs work. It's been overheating, and now this morning, it won't shift. Just what I need. But I'm trying really hard to be positive and hope that it's just something small that is easily fixed.
On an entertaining note, (well, entertaining for me now, it certaintly wasn't when it was happening) I get these "spickets" in my bathroom during the summer from time to time. Techinally they are camel crickets, but they are freaky and un-natural and look like a cross between a spider and a cricket. Hence my nickname for them. They like to hide and when I go into the bathroom and turn the light on, they jump at me, causing my heart to beat faster than a racehorse on drugs, and to high tail it out of the bathroom in search of my broom. Well, yesterday as I was getting clothes out to wash, one jumped AT MY FACE!! So I followed my routine of screaming and running to get the broom. Only this time, I tried to hit the stupid thing so hard, I broke the broom! At the moment I was freaking out, now it's pretty funny.
Lately I have been doing pretty good about not letting things get to me, and holding my head up considering everything that has happened to me in the last 2-3 months, much less the past year. But the past couple of days have really gotten to me, especially two days ago. I start thinking about everything and I always end up feeling like it's my fault. I need to find something that will snap me outta that mood. It's difficult.
Let's hope today will end on a high note. :)

Oh my goodness! I HATE those spider crickets! The cats usually catch and kill them for me before I even see them alive, thankfully. Once one hopped into the shower while I was in it and I thought I was gonna break my neck trying to hop outta the shower, screaming the whole time.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry it's been a hard few months. I'm one of those people who like to think everything's my fault someone, too. It stems from me being a control freak and feeling like I can fix everything. Even though I still struggle with that notion, I try to remind myself that I can't change much of anything around me but what I do and the way I react to things.
Oh, I've had one jump out at me from behind the shower curtain when I got in the shower one time...I don't think I've ever moved so fast in my life. And you are correct; screaming the whole time!!
ReplyDeleteIt's not that I really think it's my fault, but everyone has put the blame on me like it is my fault, so I feel like it's my fault. When I know it's not because I wasn't the one hiding and lying and sneaking around. But it all still gets to me, like I should have done something better, or done something different.
