Blah

It’s 6:30pm and I’m sitting in bed, in my pajamas, cup of tea in hand, trying to shake a case of the blahs.

Blah, blah, blah.

It’s that time of the month. I must say, my family has gotten off SOO easy when it comes to my female time. I know women who become completely different people during their “courses.” I’ve never been much of a PMSer. But today, I’m feeling the hormones. I just feel blah, like all I want to do is curl up in bed and get lost in a book. Havarti and the kids are downstairs with grandpa watching a movie. So that’s nice. I get to be all blah by myself. And my tea is yummy.

But I should be working. I tried, but it just didn’t take. My brain is mush. I tried journaling, but I’m not up for that, either. I tried writing a blog post about something I’ve been thinking about lately, but that was a no-go, too.

I don’t like feeling this blah. It’s unlike me. I’m not even enjoying my own company right now. And I’m usually quite delightful to spend some alone time with. 🙂

Took the kids to a birthday party this afternoon. Nice party. Got to see some good friends, and the kids had a great time. Came home a little overstimulated, though.

Perhaps a little meditation is in order.

Next weekend, I’m having a grown-up sleepover with another mom. My first time sleeping away from BoyWonder for the night. I’m really looking forward to it. We’re going to write, go to coffee shops, dinner, maybe a movie, chat, write some more, and sleep all the way through the night without any possibility of a child waking us up. It’s going to be glorious.

I think I’m going to bed early tonight. Maybe I’ll feel less blah in the morning.
