What it is about mood – and why does it have to swing? From one day feeling so good – light on the feet and optimistic to the next day (as in today), not so much.
Knowing yesterday was quite something I snapped a photo as proof of this possibility of a mid-week day feeling so grrreat.
Moving from my happy-go-lucky morning, and before my idea-bursting afternoon, I do lunch allowing myself a 1/2 a glass of Throwback Pepsi, (made with real sugar) with chomps of crunchy Trader Joes’ Honey BBQ chips, and bites of a nummy turkey sandwich smeared with red pepper hummus.
Clicking my kitten heals, and kicking up my feet, I pull up HULU and watch an episode of… well… let’s just say it is something that airs on Sunday nights, and it’s not football. And it is on before another favorite show of mine – Brothers and Sisters. (And it’s funny.) All while hearing Mr. C rumpusing around in his bedroom threatening to nap. (Yes, innocent child in the other room people.)
Ahhh. This all happened.
That was yesterday.
Not today.
Today I have been trying to get back to that loving feeling since waking up – no success. To get even close to the skip-in-my-step, eyebrows lifted kind of feeling—nothing has shifted and I’ve been feeling heavy footed putting one in front of the other.
The one saving grace is that I have not gone to the place of ‘making meaning’ out of it all. Cause really people. Is that always necessary? It can lead to how-low-can-I-go kind of thing. Like a game plan of sitting down to sink into what is negative in my life – wrong – or bad – yea, let’s spend the afternoon pondering that – that should really help!!!
Maybe something aqua could shift things a bit. If there is any sinking involved in my day…what about this?
I never knew!! I never knew….!!
There is such a thing
as an aqua apron sink.

If kitchening were sport,
Aqua beats pink.

Feeling a bit blue.
It protects me from think.

Shining you daily,
I see my reflection.

Passing you by,
I feel your affection.

There’s a smile.

I love how your mind does think
And finds a to-die-for sink
It does bring a smile
That lasts quite a while
But still…aqua does not beat pink!!
ohhh. you caught that….
hopefully not too upsetting. no need for you to be seeing a “free” (if your name is Julie) pink sink at the end of someones driveway or anything. we can keep this civil.
I’ll help referee the two of you, especially tomorrow when we are in public. Heavens, if we ever change our colors to be more the same we are in trouble. Perhaps it’s all just divine protection. There are a few of our rooms that come a little close and to be honest if I EVER found a sink in a color other than white like that I might just change my whole kitchen for it.
LOL – yes divine protection. And yes, I suppose I don’t technically own the rights to the color aqua.
Speaking of your kitchen Heath – I think all the people out there deserve a tour. It is what I like theee most about your house and I have been witness to the reaction of anyone rounding that corner for the first time. It is something.
And it makes me smile.
