This is very hard for me.
Once upon a time, my daydreams centered on living on my own in a little apartment with my dog. I’m going to realize that dream in about 2 months. So, I try to think about that as much as possible and to not think about things that make me unhappy.
But the unhappy thoughts do creep in pretty often. Now I try to either exercise or work on work stuff if they do. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t.
My life before was like an egg… and I dropped it, and it broke all over the place. Yolk everywhere! The things I thought I wanted… to be married to a certain person, to have my life laid out lock-step in this get-married-get-a-house-have-a-baby plan… Well, it didn’t work out that way. But I have a chance at a new start in a completely new place. And, while I’m a little scared of moving somewhere where I don’t know anybody, I’m also happy and excited to start my do-over. The other thing that’s been getting me down… well, that’s getting better too. A little at a time.
I’ve been a lot happier lately. A little re-framing, and pow! What reason do I have to be down? I have an amazing husband, a loving family and friends, cute puppies, I’m in the field I wanna be in, and I love my house. :). I hope I can keep up the happier mood :).
