Today was one of those days. I bartended last night so didn’t go to sleep until 4:00 AM and was awake at 7:30 AM. The only good thing about that is I didn’t wake up between 2:00 and 2:30 because I was already awake!!
I made a mistake today and did my taxes. That is what made today one of those days. I’m not a happy camper. Enough about the IRS, it put me further in a funk. I have to admit, I’ve been in a funk for a couple of weeks, you know, something just isn’t right.
I have standbys of what gets me out of a funk. Those things I go to in order to get me into a different state of mind. Some of them work short term and some of them work permanently. My first standby is people. A chat with Idaho, a text to a good friend, a chat with my sister, a trip to the grocery store and in desperate times, a trip to Wal-Mart. It always helps when I can get a quick-fix ego boost because I could be one of ‘those people’.
Well, those things have helped but something has lingered. I feel good while all those things are going on but then slowly slip back into oblivion. This evening I decided to catch up on some emails I haven’t read, you know, forwards from people that sometimes you don’t look at or sometimes you save them until later. I went through 20 or so today and ran into one with pictures of animals.
I do like animals, I do not own any. There are days I can hardly take care of myself let alone keeping something else alive so I just enjoy looking at other people’s animals. I found some great ones in an email today that I believe pushed me over the edge to get me out of my funk. I have no idea who to give credit to for all but one of these photos as the email had been forwarded more than several times.
This is how I felt at 7:30 AM this morning, I would dare to bet I looked something like this as well, minus the broccoli.
I love the look on the face of the one that isn’t shoving fruit into his mouth. It also looks like these are Siamese Twins and obviously the little one has lost the fight for most of the food.
Who put this dog in this swing? I have felt like this many times.
This was me when I had my cold.
This is my friend’s dog. There’s a couple things here. I don’t know that the Twins jersey quite fits him and I don’t think he’s happy to have it on. This is one of my go-to photos to make me giggle.
After my standbys, checking emails and sharing photos with all of you, I think my funk is pretty much out the window.
