Right here. Where in the world is HERE, right NOW?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was having good days. Then I had bad days. Today is back to good. Freaking roller coaster. I feel like when I&#8217;m in a good day, I need to live it up cuz I have no idea what I&#8217;ll wake up like tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I even told my husband that. He said I seem happy today, that it&#8217;s good I&#8217;m doing better. I couldn&#8217;t resist, I said, &#8220;well, enjoy it, cuz I can&#8217;t guarantee I&#8217;ll wake up this way.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>#sigh<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This all just seems so crazy, given how 2019 was going. Like, holy crap, I accomplished a LOT in 2019. Racing PRs, a solo OCR course, promotions, earning a (mostly) free vacation. Like, blessed beyond blessed, I&#8217;m speechless and grateful and then some.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And now, I don&#8217;t know if I&#8217;m going to wake up wanting anything to do with the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What. The. Eff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of my favorite TV shows had a line that mentioned feeling like &#8220;King Kong on steroids&#8221; &#8211; lately that&#8217;s almost what I feel like, when it&#8217;s a good day. World, watch out. I need to do laundry. And work my side hustle. And cook. And clean. And play with the kids&#8230;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OMG! Me n Kid #3 had the most awesome nerf war tonight!! \ud83d\ude01<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then&#8230;. Screw it. I don&#8217;t even want to brush my teeth. Or my hair. Or who gives a crap if the sink &#8211; both sinks &#8211; is full of dishes or there&#8217;s laundry or the bathrooms are dirty or the caged animal&#8217;s cage smells from the other side of the room. Cats? Eh, they&#8217;re fat. They&#8217;ll be fine til morning. To do list? Pffffft. I&#8217;d much rather just lay down n go to bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Am I manic depressive? Is that what this is like? Is it just seasonal? Is it menopause? Am I just being a baby? Am I overstressed? Burnt out? Just a typical mom of 3 busy kids &#8230;??<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>#sigh<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Roller coaster. Stupid crazy roller coaster. N I&#8217;m too old for roller coasters anymore. They hurt my back or my neck, &amp; I close my eyes. I can&#8217;t get off this one though, so I guess I better just hold on for dear life, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That and open my eyes a peek every now and then, otherwise I&#8217;d miss the impromptu nerf wars \ud83d\ude09\ud83d\ude4f<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oh man.
