Photo Week #6

I've been in a funk lately. I could blame it on PMS, I guess, but I think I've just been feeling bad about who I am. I feel irresponsible and unproductive - I know I should be staying more focused at work and more present in parenting and make wiser decisions about my health but I just don't want to do any of that. And that makes me feel bad.

This morning I decided - maybe I will try to take things hour by hour. I get so discouraged by the end of the day, and at least by the end of the day I'm ready to try again the next day, but maybe I need to start even smaller than that. Hour by hour. And then day by day. And then maybe week by week. But I will start small. Baby steps...

In other news, two things that have made me happy recently: magnolia blossoms and chocolate chip cookie bars that I hopefully will post about on friendswithkitchens soon! Spring is coming soon, and that also makes me feel more hopeful that my bad moods will go away soon...
