feeling a bit low
posted by soe 1:40 am

I know it’s been a few days since I last wrote, but that’s because I was busy having a lovely weekend up in Connecticut. I ate lots of good food; had quality visiting time with the folks, Gramma, and Karen; and came home with pretty new shirts (thanks Mum!), (thin) socks, and shoes.

And, now, in the wake of both a holiday and a smidgen of a vacation, I’m feeling a bit low. Okay, credit that, if you will, to a lack of sleep or to its being that time of the month, or, even, to the fact that I need desperately to completely overhaul my apartment before Sunday afternoon. Nonetheless, I spent this evening curled up on the couch watching tv. Granted, I watch tv every Monday, but this week my knitting sat untouched in my bag in front of me for the whole night, even though I’m a mere 20 rows away from finishing Mystery Project #1. (Yay!)

I’m hoping tomorrow is a more productive day in all aspects. It would be great to get to party-time on Sunday without having our guests have to help us prep the food or carry the tree into the house.

Sometimes you just need a little downtime. Good luck with preparations!

Awww, I hope you feel more nright and cheery soon. I always get a bit down myself after visiting my family – I miss them! And I found it worse this time around thanks to the cold that still won’t quite leave – you were recently sick too, which could be adding to it. Those other things are certainly contributers too.

*HUG*

Speaking on behalf of the guests, we won’t mind helping out on Sunday.

But I do hope you’re feeling better soon, though I don’t think it’s unusual to have this kind of holiday hangover. It’s hard (and tiring and dispiriting) to get back to the daily grind after a fun weekend.

I hope you feel better soon. The blues has hit pretty badly here…our weather has been mostly gray and mostly chilly and I miss the sun! Hopefully some down time and your party will help you feel right again.
