Making Today Better
I’m pretty sure everyone I interacted with yesterday knew I was having a bad day. In fact, one women simply said to me you don’t seem like yourself today. To which I responded, I cannot lie, I am in a pretty horrible mood. It’s really not a great day to have to present to so many people. But, I’ll get through it and tomorrow will better. And hey, it could always be worse.
As I drove home after my day of meetings, I thought about my day and my general attitude about everything. I realized that I just oozed grouchiness all day long. I clearly wasn’t a joy for others to be around.
I’m actually now rather annoyed at myself for being so unpleasant to be around. First off, I tend to keep personal emotions out of work, and clearly I failed at that yesterday. Second, I don’t want to be a grouchy bitter person. That’s not how I want people to remember time spent with me. Third, I’m just generally not that unpleasant of a person.
So, while I am human and I do get to have grouchy days, I would also much rather be a little bit more like my positive self.
And so, I’m determined to make sure that today is a better day then yesterday. I’m not really sure how to do that yet, but it’s only 7am, so I’ve got some time to make sure today is a better day.

I totoally hear you about work chipping away at the positivity! Days like today make me think that life would be so much better if money grew on trees and I didn’t have to work!

Here’s hoping today is a better day for you. I was in a foul mood most of yesterday, too — maybe the stars and planets were out of alignment? 😉

Yes I think the stars and planets were out of alignment for both of us. Is today going any better for you?

We all have bad days here and there, it’s allowed! Nobody is perfect, and nobody can be in a stellar mood ALLLLLL the time. Don’t beat yourself up too much. I know you’ve been going through a lot lately, so give yourself some grace and room to flub once in a while. Hang in there friend, hopefully today was much better for you. *hugs*

I hope you succeeded! I very occasionally have days like that too, where I just can’t shake how crappy I feel and it oozes out onto every aspect and interaction of my day.
