I Need a Do-Over

Yesterday was a bust. Nothing horrible, but nothing "good."  

Accident on the way -- took an extra hour (plus) for the trip. Grateful to not be in an accident, of course, but it felt long.

Came into the house to a bunch of chores after houseguests -- sheets, towels, bathrooms, general clean-up. Nothing big, but not my usual everything-in-order arrival.

Went downtown to do the usual fun things while hubby watched football. First up, Dobra Teahouse for reading and a chai. Line out the door and into the street. What?!?! Okay, I decided to grab a HBD gift at Anthropology and come back. Struck out at the store (really strange clothes) so much so that I opted out of even a gift card. Went back and STILL a huge, on-the-street line. The place was jam packed too. Hit the flea market for bedroom art -- also struck out. And STILL the teahouse was packed. Seriously?!? It wasn't a group. I've never seen it like that -- no chai and reading for me. I tried to buy BoldRock as a part of the HBD gift and I couldn't get anyone to wait on me. "Someone's coming." No one came. Final strike out.

Stopped to pick up dinner for hubby. I was so thirsty, but I waited for his pizza. So much for MY time downtown. Came home and cooked my dinner I brought along.

I felt rundown yesterday afternoon. I went to bed early and slept well. Having a monthly every 10 days is doing a number on me. 

Looking for a better mojo day today. Yesterday wasn't horrible, but I wasn't able to add any fun.

That said, taking it in stride, knowing when to throw in the towel, listening to my body -- all future self stuff. 

"May you forever stay in pursuit
of the small things that warm 
your heart."


Wish me luck today. It's Monday -- how bad can it be? I have a plan. Hope you're set up for a good week. Later gators.

P.S. Looks like BOTS are back. Hopefully, they get bored again and leave.
