Happy Hump Day all!
Have you ever felt like you just can’t catch a break? For the past few months I’ve been struggling with a spate of bad fortunate. From my new car being hit while parked to having dental work that set me back over $2000, I felt like I couldn’t catch a break even if I tried. I wanted to keep my head up but it was really hard to stay positive. I struggled with wanting to wallow in self pity but I knew it wouldn’t get me anywhere. Despite my misfortunes, there were bright spots like my BFF throwing me surprise 47th birthday party. The party came at the perfect time because I was feeling so defeated about my situation. Celebrating my birthday with my friends and family was just what I needed. For a couple of hours I was able to relax and have a great time.
Things have calmed down in the past few weeks and I’ve been able to roll with the punches. I would be lying if I said I hope things stay quiet for long time. Like Mary J Blige said “no more drama!”
Have a wonderful day!

I often read your blog, but this is the first time I’m commenting.
To answer your question, yes, I too have felt that I just can’t get a break, and it led me down a very dark road 🙁 Spending time with my friends and family (as you did yours for your birthday) has helped a great deal. When we can’t go on, others carry us 🙂
PS… You look FABULOUS for 47!
That green and pink look so springy and lovely on you! There’s little signs of spring and re-birth everywhere. I am sorry to hear about your rough patch. I like to think that when things get so low eventually they have nowhere else to go but up and I hope that time is coming for you.
Keep your head up. Better days are coming.
Blips. Expensive blips. That’s all they are. This, too, shall pass.
