I already messed up
I mean I didn't even post one word yesterday? What is THAT?! I could make excuses like, well the girls were off for election day and that required me to run all over God's green earth in a torrential downpour voting and making some memories with E at Bath & Body Works, Old Navy and Barnes and Noble (aka-the tween trifecta); then grocery shopping and making a dinner that somewhat resembled one made with love, that the kids didn't eat and bedtime-which lasts for like an hour and a half, and then depressing national election results thinly veiled with some Real Housewives to distract myself, but the phone still worked so I succumbed to national news and then watched Manifest with Tom,because if i feel like this country is crashing down I may as well enjoy a show about a missing plane. And now that i think of it...when was the last time Q bathed?!
But that's not a good excuse. So today I am going to practice some forgiveness.
*I forgive myself for skipping a day to even type one word
*I forgive myself for choosing to eat a banana because of it's high carb content, when the truth of the matter is- no one got fat eating bananas and at least it wasn't Halloween candy or Q's leftover soggy waffle.
*I forgive myself for using Splenda in my coffee because every time I rip one open I think yummmmm poison but i also think, I really love Splenda in my coffee and I also really love Pumpkin Spice non dairy creamer which is basically just HFCS and oil and I passed on that...so baby steps.
And the truth is the election news wasn't all awful. The increase in women in congress is a huge step forward and the Dem's got the house, which is better than where we were yesterday and everyone I voted for on the local level won. (even the Republican....GASP!). And yes that Fucktard is still our president, but hopefully there will be some accountability now.
And today started with bright sunny skies, the coffeehouse station on Amazon music and my kids both woke up in a generally well rested decent mood. And I only had to dig one article out of the hamper to appease Q today. Baby steps.
