Well, this is not the post I was going to write. Yesterday I went back to work after having been on maternity leave for just over a year. I am only working 2 days a week, for two reasons. Firstly because child care is so expensive and secondly, I want to spend as much time with Marco as possible. I also teach 2 evening classes a week so Wednesday's is Marco's day with the child minder so that I can prepare for class and do some of the household admin and paperwork that I don't get the chance to do any other time.
I usually look forward to my Wednesdays because I am free to do what I want without babies and children. I was full of ideas for my post for today but after I dropped Marco off I just started to slip into a bad mood. And it got worse as the day went on. I don't know why. There is no reason. It was a beautiful day. Nothing bad happened. I did some boring admin. Wrote some emails. Made some phone calls. Drank some tea. Talked to the rabbits. Sat in the sun and did some crochet. Some very bright, colourful crochet. It could just as well have been in black and white for all the cheer it brought. But I kept feeling darker and darker. Despite giving myself a talking to. It's not normal for me, usually I am a pretty happy person.
In the end I gave in to it. Today I am grumpy. That is all. Tomorrow will be better.
I hope your day and mood improved!! Your photos are awesome! I esp love the bunny.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why grumpiness happens and I loathe when it happens to me with no reason in sight. It is best to give in as fighting it seems to make, at least me, grumpier. Great photos!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry you were feeling sad today! Tomorrow is a new day! Really like the second photo! Pretty cool!
ReplyDeleteSometimes our bad mood appears without knowing why...so just forget and try today to be a new day.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos, and its great you can be so honest and open to express all your moods. I just saw the movie Gone With the Wind (in the movie theater!) for the first time since I saw it as a child, it was amazing, and you are very wise, your words at the end remind me what Scarlett always said, after all she went thru, Tomorrow is another day!!
ReplyDeleteWishing you a beautiful and light filled today and tomorrow!♡
