I am in such a funk today, and I need somewhere to vent it out.
I haven't worked out in 2 weeks, so I think hitting the gym will help (that is a long time for me, I was travelling and then sick). I have a hacking cough from what's left of strep, and have oral surgery on Thursday. I am in the middle of a friend renovation in my life (out with the negative, in with the positive), which is great, but I am in that weird place with some people that are new, and some that are old while I transition. My 30th birthday is in 3 weeks, and I still have no idea what I am doing, the friend transition isn't helping matters. I have no prospects for dating, but that's by my own choice, so I don't think it's contributing to mood.
I bet tomorrow will be much better after I go to the gym. Thanks for letting me ***, I rarely do and I hate being like this. I need to get back to my normal happy state.
Anyone else feeling like they are in a rut today, or am I the only Debbie Downer? lol
Re: I am in such a funk today, and I need somewhere to vent it out.
I feel the same exact way today. I got scammed by a woman on Ebay, have work up to my eyeballs and can't seem to make any progress with my working out. I feel like Im in a total funk today.
Thank god I have pilates and acupuncture tonight which Im hoping helps
Hope you feel better!
Thanks!
Pilates and accupuncture sounds great. I'm sorry you were scammed! Usually they'll guarantee your purchase. I hope it gets sorted out.
It's amazing what working out can do for mood. I already know that it makes a huge difference for me. It's a big reason why sickness is so hard for me.. huge downer!
Add me to the funky bunch! Sort of feeling sick today, but not really sick. The weather here went from warm and beautiful to cold and rainy. DS was at XH's this weekend and met the gf and her kids (he just met her the weekend before) and I think that's way to fast, but have no control over that. It's making me feel a little sad that XH is moving on (hell he was moving on while we were engaged!) and I've not had a real date since last year. Add to that my DD is having some preteen stuff and her dad is of no help, so I'm going it alone.
But I did buy new fancy shoes over the weekend and that makes me slightly less crabby!
These things all help me too. I am getting a haircut and red highlights next weekend after my surgery, so that should spruce me up too.
Thank you all for commiserating. I like to stay away from whining, but sometimes it's nice to have people to whine with.
Anyone else please feel free to join the funky bunch.
Please excuse my terrible typing today. I am working and trying to type and post without looking at it.
I've been cranky today. Being a lazy bum and eating like crap are the culprits.
When's your birthday? I'll come get you drunk!
I feel cranky, and I feel like the world is even crankier around me. I'm just trying to lay low and make it to the end of the day. Well, the work day.
April 15th! I am definitely going out for dinner and then out somewhere on the 14th, just not sure where. I just don't feel like planning it. lol We should definitely do something!
I told my family today that H and I are separating. They are trying to talk me into reconciling. I tried to explain there is just nothing there anymore, there is not any drama, and that this is a mutual decision. They can not wrap their heads around it. Apparently I'm throwing my marriage away.
I really hate that when I need the most support from my family - I'm not receiving any.
I hope you feel better soon. Working out always seems to release loads of stress.
Oh, I'm totally there with you. I've been in a funk for a while now.
Sometimes I wish there was a pill you could take to just perk up your brain to snap it out of this, like a mega-antidepressant or something.
Total rut today and it HAD to happen when I woke up. Had yet another dream about my last guy and how things would have worked out and we and our families were so happy.....so woke up feeling semi sad and complete crap with a 12 shift in front of me. Then work might have well been the bloodiest, crappiest, episode of Grey's Anatomy, head home and my mom who still (and I am very thankful for that) watches DD kind of just treats me like the mom coming home to the babysitter and takes off. Grrr.
I hope tomorrow is better - I am helping out an acquaintance that I hope turns into a friend even though it means watching my 8 month old DD and her 2 or so month DD for a couple hours. It might be fun though. Plus even though she is an "intact family" (a phrase my bestie coined recently) with a husband and daughter - they go to my church and are nice people and that is where I am trying to build my friend base now.
