today was just one of those days. i woke up in a funk.
but, mike was off work and so was i, which was the silver lining in my bad-mood-day. he was sweet to me and tolerant of my im-too-tired induced state of grumpy.
he cooked breakfast, helped me clean up the yard, helped me sort through a tub of baby clothes that were given to us second hand, swept the floor, and did some laundry. then i decided that i was done being productive for the day and was ready to be lazy! sooo... we went for coffee and when we came home, mike pulled up videos of cute husky puppies to make me laugh. then we ate a little lunch, and watched the newest episode of haven that we'd recorded last night. all in all, even though i was tired, not feeling so hot, and kinda cranky, it hasnt been a bad day. and its so nice to just have some time to spend with him, uninterrupted by work.
now im here, looking up pictures and watching recorded re-runs of ghost whisperer, trying to ignore my backache, which isnt really working. what IS working [on my mood] is the smell of the dinner my amazing husband is cooking (steak and veggies on the grill)....and this:
im not taking credit for this shot, i actually grabbed it off of a mortgage company's website after googling images for 'rockport, ma'...
there's just something about new england - its quaint, charming, and beautiful. and sometimes [a picture of it] is exactly what i need to inspire me and improve my mood.
now its time to unwind with a good book in a hot bath to ease this spasm in my back - i cant think of a better way to wrap up this day.
