Yuk, yuk. I am in a my 2nd day of just feeling, blah. Too much contact w/ stbx for sure, maybe a touch of pms. plus it's raining. I keep missing my old house & just feel altogether out of it. I have a hair appt & party tomorrow & I am not looking forward to either. This is so not me. I am getting really tired of this roller coaster, I haven't had a bad day in ages but yuk - 2 in a week? I hate wasting time feeling mis. I guess it's inevitable today tho.

You of course know your mood will lift with time. But, how to bounce it sooner than later.
You know better than any of us. As Numbnms says, "Don't wait for the storm to pass. Dance in the rain." You could try that.
Making music - singing or playing my horn - can lift my mood. I'm always a big one for hugs. Play with a pet.
Or, just bawl your eyes out. Maybe it's what you need to do now. Then you'll bounce back.
Sometimes hard exercise helps. Push yourself until you're panting, perspiring and your heart is pounding.
Or, make sure you've had something to eat and enough to drink.
Just some thoughts.

So much to forget...

I have just discovered my 14 year old dog is stone deaf. I guess that is to be expected at her age, but I missed it until the fireworks tonite. Normally she would be barking like nuts but it's cool here tonite so I had my windows opened soI think I was meant to be bored, blah, just so I could notice this...poor baby.

2 days running for me Clementine. Definitely triggered by a few things. Blah! I'm not good at being blah!
In fact, I think I might be feeling worse than blah!

**How to shake a case of the blahs?**
Sex.
Masterbation.
Eat a slab of honey BBQ'd ribs, in that order.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift, that's why it's called the present.

Yeah, you don't want to have the ribs first and then masterb@te. That could cause some real problems.
I understand the blahs. I've been a bit down the last couple of days. I've been dating but I feel like I'm in relationship limbo. I'm not even enjoying some of these dates because I know going into them that they aren't my type.

Sorry Clem that you are feeling down. Hopefully today
with your hair appointment and party you will feel better.
I watch 'Planes, Trains and Automobiles' when I am down.
That movie makes me laugh so hard.
Of course a glass of wine usually helps me.

hi clem.
i was oot earlier this week and couldnt reply.
but this post was on my mind the past day.
i hope you are feeling better!
(i personally find any alcohol to be fine for a momentary cure, but im often MORE sad the next day, so if im a bit down, alcohol works against me. just a thought.)
back to the issue.
i think you have been doing SO well post divorce.
you have tackled challenges with gusto.
possibly with tears or anger, but still in the end
you had a job, did it, and you look back and smile with victory at your accomplishments! KUDOS!
all the parts in your control you have done, and
done well.
i think this latest bit of feeling 'down' is due to
the girlfriend in your ex's life.
and not only the girlfriends existence, but
the kids being around her is tough too.
some point in the beginning of my process i read that facing the ex had a new Sign. Other is rough.
(along with a mess of other things well have to face in the coming years).
Knowing the marriage is over is all dealt with,
but a new person in your ex's life is another issue altogether.
and while you WANT (truely!) your kids to like and be liked by the new person, it is still VERY hurtful and freaking irritating. i mean part of you (and me and im sure others) wishes the kids would do nasty stuff like what you see on tv...you know worms, snakes, spitting...whatever... LOL>
but in reality that would not play out well for the kids.
so...you know.
anyhow
i think a couple of down days after dealing with this is normal and will pass (for you, anyhow,as you deal very well with things) very quickly.
hang in there.
thinking of you.
taryn.

What stage is the moon in right now? I'm wondering if it's a new moon. I know a few weeks ago during a full moon we were all being a little squirrly and since there are several of us feeling a bit down, I'm wondering if it's a new moon.
