Overwhelmed

-
I had a feel bad days last week.. nothing bad happened.. life was going on as usual but to me it felt unbearable.. In fact we had a great weekend, took the boys to a haunted house and they did not freak out. M and I had a date night.. but I just couldn't push away the dark thoughts.. and then I felt so ungrateful.. I am so blessed.. what could I possibly be upset about. If you are out there feeling blue.. you are not the only one.. we all have our moments, days..  

I'm good now.. just thought I'd check in and share.

Thank you for this post, Hena! I too have felt like this lately and when you do feel like this, you feel isolated and alone. I really appreciate you sharing how you were feeling, so that other people can know they are not the only ones who have bad days. Glad to hear you're feeling good now. Thanks for checking in, Hena! Hope you have a wonderful week ahead! XXX

Days and sunlight are getting shorter and shorter now. I think the blues often accompanies autumn. I hope this coming week is better for you!

I can certainly relate to that Hena, as I've been having these off-kilter days as well. And it's good to know I'm not the only one. I've been blaming it on the time of year, and it having been dismal and dark outside. I'm sure it will pass, and that this week will be a better one for you! Sending hugs xxx

Thank you for sharing this and I'm glad that you're feeling much better now. Yes, I think we all have those times and we shouldn't be ashamed to admit it. I really like that last quote!

Ah yes I feel like this often, but with me it is not surprising as I faced a lot of hardship in life and do not have a lot in life either. And the world itself seems like it is going off a cliff. But in your case it could be hormonal, this happens to me as well. Also my advice? Do not watch the news and stay off social media for while or least sites that are about current events.

Thank you for being real, my friend.
And know you are not alone!
Somethings women don't talk about enough, and this is one of them.
Glad you are feeling better, and hugs!

We all have those days (in fact, I was having one this morning). You just roll with them. Who knows why we do, but it happens. I'm glad it's a little better now. d

Thanks for sharing this. It's important for people to know they're not the only ones who have a dark day. Glad to hear you got through it.

Sorry you had a bad day despite everything fun going on - some days can be like that, don't be too hard on yourself! If every day was joyful we'd never appreciate it! :)

Hope that you had a great weekend :) Despite a bit of a rainy one we managed to get to the beach which was nice :)

I'm sorry you had a bad day. We all have them, but the important thing is to remember how blessed we are. I like the "tired" quote, cause these days, got a lot going on and I'm tired. : )

Happy November days, and thank you for all your visits. I really appreciate them.

I've been meaning to comment here for ages, when I first read your post. I hope you are feeling better today. Our lives are so busy, it is difficult to carve out time to reflect and just be. Life can be unbearable even under the most privileged circumstances. I sometimes think I should not allow dark thoughts in my life because really, my life is good. But then I think if I break my leg, it is still painful no matter how privileged I am and that also applies to my mental health. I hope I make any sense! Have a good weekend x

Kitchen and Family Room: New Flooring

When the wall between our family room and kitchen see details here came down we had to deal with two different flooring, old carpet and newish laminate. The plan was to find the same laminate.. we found the box in the basement, how hard could it be? Harder than we thought.. that particular one had been discontinued.. and finding something similar was not an easy task..  Finding a flooring that was kind of close but not close enough would seem like a mistake.. so we decided to go different, this way it would seem like an intentional design choice.. I had always wanted a chocolaty dark floor.. The next thing to take into consideration was the transition between the two floors.. generally what is used it a T- Moulding, that strip you see in the above picture connecting the two floors together. Not the prettiest option. Pinterest to the rescue..  Adding tile to the mix would help to blend the two different brown together and there would be no awkward bump in t...

D's Amazing Race Party

Last weekend our eldest turned 9.. and we threw him an amazing race birthday party! As with all the boys other parties.. I bought a plain white cake from Wegmans and let D decorate it himself. We had a total of nine kids.. they picked bandanna's out of a bag to create 3 teams. First Task Not all the kids knew each other.. they were too amped up with the idea of winning that they couldn't manage to calm down and read the clue.. so we had to really guide them through it.. they made mistakes and we let it go.. it seemed a tad chaotic..  Second Task I had 33 little medicine cups filled with M&M's and Goldfish crackers.. 6 of them had stickers on the bottom. The first two teams found the sticker in the first try... what are the odds!? And the third team had to eat a lot of snacks before they finally found their sticker. Third Task I bought 48 piece puzzles from the Dollar Tree. The boys took their time making ...
