oringreyI really didn't feel like going to work today; I really had to remind myself that I don't hate my job. That I actually really enjoy it! But sometimes you're just not feeling it. I woke up early (probably because I fell asleep at 6pm last night) but I just didn't want to get out of bed.
Now that I'm actually up and moving I feel alright, though.
I had a bit of a rough weekend (I'm off work on Sundays and Mondays) but not for any real reason. I think the seasonal depression is just starting to sink in because I just felt off all weekend. I call it emotionally precarious. I wake up feeling okay but the smallest thing can easily throw me off and ruin my whole day.
I hate feeling like that, but I'm trying to get better at just letting go of my emotions. I always let them steamroll me and I'm trying to learn how to simply feel my emotions and let them pass.
I actually have a lot to look forward to. We're trying to adopt a dog and I absolutely love her! I really hope we get her!
My dog that I've had since I was 17 had to be put down in January of last year and that was really hard. We had a family dog before that, but she was the first dog that felt like mine. Like, she was truly my companion.
But I've really been wanting to get another dog for a while and I finally feel like I'm ready so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. She's so cute and she actually reminds me a lot of the first family dog we had. Here, I'll post some pictures.
And I'm getting a tattoo next Saturday! From an artist I've been eager to work with for a while.
They posted on their story a few pieces they wanted to do and one was a duck. Ducks have kind of become an icon for Linus so I knew I had to get it! I'm really looking forward to it.
