I've been dreadfully sick the past few days, apparently I caught Influenza B, and *only* got GI symptoms, which have been brutal. But after 3-4 days, I've finally been able to get a full night's sleep, no issues. I woke up like a complete mermaid, in a great mood for the first time in a couple of weeks, which is nice. I like the energy I can give to my wife and the kids. Even Gabby, who, by contrast, wakes up like a hobgoblin every morning, I was able to convince her to even out and I even got her to laugh! Laughing is an afternoon activity for her! That was nice.
Today is a great day.
I'm still not doing a great job with judgement. I'm straight up not even thinking before I do it, but I suppose part of the progress is being acutely aware that I'm doing it, so that's the first step. A few more to go.
All in all, a green smiley face on my mood calendar. |
