Today is my breaking point. After 3 winters in Arkansas, I figured that I just had unrealistic expectations of how fast Spring should come. But, alas, IT IS MAY 1 and the temperature is 38 degrees!
Now, I have activated the coping methods I usually do when I get mad/angry about something:
1. Try to think about how things 'could be worse.' Like, we COULD live in Alaska or we could be dealing with a tornado or earthquake. Yes, things definitely could be worse, but none-the-less, this coping method is not working.
2. Distract myself. Cleaning my house and doing laundry are NOT going to effectively distract me today. No way. Not even shopping can do this.
3. Look forward to something. I have nothing to look forward to now that my Vegas trip has passed.
As you can see, none of these are working. So, I'm cranky today - just ask my husband.
If you're wondering - a rant online didn't help either :(
Thanks for bearing with me.

I soooooo agree with you! I am so tired of this weather and this spring! BE NICE NOW! I just got home from the MIA's Art in Bloom event they always have this time of year and usually it is so appropriate since all the flowers out and it FEELS like spring! But this year ... not so much. It was more like ... "huh ... so that's what a flower looks like ... I'd forgotten!"
ReplyDeleteI am grumpy too. And cold. I am going to go put on socks and turn the heat on now :(
You can be excited about my baby. That's about the only thing keeping me happy about the crummy weather.
