Have you ever had one of those days?
You feel like everyone is out to get you.
Even the little old lady in the car in front of you that refuses to drive anything more than fifteen below the speed limit?
Even those with supposed good intentions come off hypocritical and demonic?
The cutest little dog that craves attention seems sinister?
Fluffy kitty looks upset that it doesn't have opposable thumbs with which to attack you in a more constructive way?
Yesterday was one of those days. Steam actually escaped from my ears.
No joke.
I
was
angry.
At what?
It seemed like everything. One of those days that I should have stayed in bed. I wish that I had that luxury sometimes. But alas, I don't. No sick days. No personal days. No 'just because I don't want to' days.
I wish I could have yesterday back. To do over. I don't feel I was a productive person. Or a good mom. The only thing I did right was not take any frustration out on the girls - no excessive time outs or removal of beloved toys. Just an out of tune mom who couldn't seem to get on track all day long.
Thankfully, today was a new day.
Sleep did me good.
I left most of my anger in yesterday's memories.
Each day is a fresh start. A clean slate to screw up however I choose.
