Kelly, I love that you allow yourself to wallow and eat candy. As it should be!

I felt very stupid today when I thought about how mad I was yesterday, over some truly trivial stuff, when there are so many people in Nashville still under water (not to mention a few other issues going on in the world right now)… Talk about perspective!

Sometimes I think I enjoy the funk (for a short time only). It gives me an excuse to get out of the funk, which includes eating my favorite candy, drinking a glass of wine and wallowing in what I think are my pities. Then I usually have some sort of wake up call and realize how my problems are nothing compared with what so many people face on a daily basis. Then I just feel stupid that I spent all that time in a funk. Putting things in perspective definitely helps, but for me it usually happens the next day when I’m out of the funk anyway.

And I know that whatI should probably do is go for a run. But it is 11 pm, so who are we kidding. My biggest problem with funks is that i often know that some form of exercise would do the trick in terms of getting out of said funk, but at the same time the funk makes me feel tired and lazy and bed-ridden. It’s a catch 22.

And the worst kind of funk is when you are annoyed at your husband, and its late, and you know that trying to talk about it will be fruitless until morning when you are both less tired and more clearheaded. For example.
