That heading only makes proper sense if you read my post yesterday. I picked myself up, dusted myself off and put on a happy face and had a great day.
So it ended up a happy day indeed. I was having fun, meeting some new moms on the playground, teaching my daughter not to throw sand of other kids, making a quick lunch of several leftovers together, even finding the energy for some gardening at the end of the day. So it wasn’t a ‘superwoman’ day – and that’s just fine. The house was still messy, no ‘real’ dinner was cooked, but the attitude was kept up most of the day. (Thanks Sara and Ana for that reminder ;) )
At the moment, I’m finding relief in just doing little things that make me happy. To relax, I pause and tune into my surroundings which involve tons of pretty blooming flowers swaying to the sounds of lovely bird songs. Nature seems to be my cure for all my anxieties and blues that might peek into my life. To shake them off I go outside…. hmm, maybe to the river….
I’m finding bliss in listening to Yael Naim at the moment. Here’s to more good days!

So happy to hear your tomorrow was better. For so long I wasn’t receiving anything from the RSS feed for you then suddenly I had 84 posts in your folder! Must have been a glitch somewhere, but glad to see you were well and writing all along. :)

You’re quite welcome. And thank you for having the courage to post about your bad days. I know that many people (myself included) use their blogs to focus on the beauty in their lives. But sometimes it all seems too whitewashed, and, while I know that everyone has bad days, it’s nice to hear someone else admit it once in a while!
