I am having a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. It just keeps getting worse and worse. I can’t seem to get a handle on it. I have lost all control over it all together and I’m standing by the sidelines watching it spiral away from me.

Tomorrow is bound to be better, I assume, except that I’ve been saying that for weeks now.

I take comfort in the knowledge that it could always be worse. My house hasn’t burnt down recently. I have all four of my beautiful children (relatively) healthy. I have an amazing support structure. I have (most of) the things I want and all of the things that I need. Still, none of this helps the fact that *today* is not going well.

I just want to pick up and move and start all over again, but that is not an option right now. Or is it?

All I can say is, I hear you! I have no advice, except perhaps chocolate? That’s been my solution of late 🙂

So sorry to hear it. You may remember that one day last week I wrote that relatively speaking, Alexander’s day wasn’t so bad… I’ve had a few bad ones too recently. Hopefully the support you have can help you through and things will settle down once again. Looking forward to better days for all of us…

But you have a wonderful striped horse to blame it all on, right?

I posted a whole entry about Adam’s “Alexander” day (which, of course, turned out to be mine, too) not too long ago. Tomorrow is a new day… and hopefully a better one! I’m thinking of you!

Oh, friend, I am so sorry you’re having a day like this. I, too, have had a sh*t day. I am hoping tomorrow is completely different and that I will no longer have the urge to throw something.
Hang in there.

Late to the post, but I’m hoping that today has improved from yesterday. 🙂

I hope it’s over and done with – all the badness and horribleness and no-goodedness, that is.
