DAY 112 - Friday, January 13, 2017 - The Good Bits

Written late this afternoon:

Well, the week is over. I survived it. It felt like a long one, folks, and I'm good with seeing it from this side.

For those of you keeping track of my mood, it has improved today, though I would say that I just feel generally low. Hormones, maybe? You feel me, women readers? Could be, I guess. My ovaries can't do math anymore, so I never really know. (Actually, my body hasn't been able to do math since after Carter was born, which is why we have a Grayson... not that I'm complaining, but you know...)

But I just feel a little blah -- a little less full of the joy and the happy. Normally, I'd say I'm a pretty happy and cheerful person. But today I just feel uncommunicative (in person anyway). I feel like sitting in silence and not being responsive to anyone. This is how you can tell I'm in a bad mood: I'm not talking or laughing or cracking hilarious jokes. It's a shame for the world, really, to miss out on my humour, because it really is just so good.

And now it is just after 11:00 p.m. I am laying in bed to do my Three Good Things post, and then fall asleep playing Yahtzee on my phone like a normal person. Normal people play Yahtzee on their phones right?!

The evening made my day much better.

1. On our way home, we picked up Indian food. I mean, seriously, how can that not be Good Thing #1. It's just so danged tasty!

2. One of the guys who is in Regina from the Boston office for Jeff's work came over for supper (rather than sit by himself in a hotel room). I liked him so much. I went from being in a mood where (as I said above) I just didn't really want to talk to anyone, to talking (most of the evening) with Bob. (That's his name, not just a random name I decided to put here). I talked to him more than Jeff did. Before we talked a ton? He played Crazy 8's with Jeff and Carter. Yup. He's a winner.

3. This moment. Sitting in bed, feeling very tired, finishing up this blog, knowing soon, the lamp will be off and I will be five rolls into my game before passing out. Being that kind of tired when you get to go right to bed is awesome sauce.

And with that...
