it's beginning to get to me


Sometimes I think that I am far too much of a perfectionist.

No, scratch that. I'm always a perfectionist.

I couldn't even tell you how many blog posts I have saved as drafts, simply because I didn't like what I wrote and got frustrated halfway through. Not this time, though! However this entry turns out, I will post it.

So, I came to the realization last night that my life is growing a little old. I've let go of some good habits and replaced them with bad ones, and that's not good. Because of this realization, I am doing some mental spring cleaning. Sound fun? It really is.

It was actually a great feeling to wake up this morning. Since I went to bed last night angry at myself, and frustrated about pretty much everything in my life, I expected that today would be difficult to face.

It wasn't! I woke up far more rejuvenated than I do most mornings, and I noticed while I was running errands in my spare block that my mood was substantially happier than it has been in the past several weeks.

Can you tell? Probably not, but I can.

I'm smiling for real today.

Last night was not the greatest for me either, but i went to bed happier than i expected. Then when I awoke I was even rejuvenated as well. The sun was out, the birds were a singing. It was wonderful!! I hope your weekend goes really good for you Leah.
