I’m not sure why, but lately I’ve been feeling a little depressed. I really don’t know why, other than maybe it is hormonal, but I’m not one to get down and stay down, so I need to pick myself up and dig myself out of this little hole I’m in. I’ve felt frustrated about many things, and I need to start focusing on the more positive things in life, as I do have SO much to be grateful for.
I’m going to get back to these daily gratitude lists, which gives me the time to pause and reflect on all that is good in my life and all that I’m grateful for.
My Gratitude List for October 25, 2009.
Today I’m Grateful For:
- Baby JJ and Mister Mistoffelees who have brought alot of laughter and joy to my life by their prescence.
- The sound of leaves crumpling beneath my feet as I walk through them.
- Sunshine and a gorgeous fall day.
- Marcel for all his help around the house while I’m working.
- My health.
I’m wondering if some of the angst you are feeling right now has to do with the change in seasons, coming holiday season, and feeling a little torn because you enjoy spending the holidays with your family so much (& rightly so!) … Just a guess on my part… Perimenopause could also to be blame as you already suggested in another post. The worst thing about perimenopause is that it can go on for quite a while. Hopefully, you are just in a minor funk which will pass quickly.
XOXOX

I love this time of the year Charmie, so I’m not sure what it is. I definitely would love to be home for the holidays this year, but I was telling mom last night, I really can’t put my finger on it completely. Maybe it’s a combination of many things. How are you sweetie?

I wondered if perhaps it has to do with change in routine? I hope your spirits lift.

It’s possible Bethany- I think it could be a combination of many things. I feel a touch better today. I’m fighting hard to dig out of the hole, but it’s dark in here.
