One Of Those Days

Today was one of those days. I felt like I was watching the clock inch slowly closer to bedtime from shortly before serving breakfast. And boy, was that clock moving slooooowly.

It really was just an ordinary day. The kids were just being, well, kids. But I on the other hand was not at all being just mama. I was Grumpy, with a capital G, and on edge all day long. I'm not sure why. There definitely wasn't one specific thing that set me off. Like I said, it was just one of those days.

It was a busy day. I am trying to pack for our trip to visit my family, but the motivation to get started on the project was lacking. I just wasn't in my groove so everything felt off, took too long, or was too loud. How is it possible that the ordinary noises of my children playing, which so seamlessly blend in to the background of my life, can seem way too loud on some days?

So there you have it. That was my day. The kids have been in bed for a few hours now and I'm still battling this feeling. But, tomorrow is another day and I have faith that it will be good and productive and fun. I think I'll be smart and prep breakfast tonight so that I can start the day with some positive momentum. I am all for positive momentum!
