What I Got
Lately I’ve been feeling a bit depressed, a bit low. I’m not sure what really brought it on, probably a combination of new motherhood and exhaustion. I know many new mothers go through this, but as I hadn’t really experienced it, I was caught offgaurd. I started to feel kind of worthless, like what I do every day is easy, unimportant, boring, and the like.
Then a chain of events began that changed my thoughts. I won’t go into detail, but some things happened that took my mind off of how I was feeling, and made me realize how lucky I really am. Then today it was 75 degrees outside and I went for a great walk and had some time with my husband and carved pumpkins for Halloween. And it just all seemed right.
So, for now, I’m pretty happy. And even though I know I’ll probably feel crappy again, I know that I’ll feel happy again too. And when I walk into Lucy’s room in the morning and she sees me and starts cracking up, I know that happy feeling will never be too far away.
Well I am sure your mood will remain in the upper limits for the day since Lucy will be spending it in a cute Monkey costume. How can you resist that?!
Love you Megs! Post pics of the lil’ monkey!
