Today is shaping up to be a kind of crappy day, but I'm going to do my best to turn it around.
I did get out and go hiking yesterday -- the weather was fine and it was really nice to catch up with an old friend. It was an exhausting day, though, and I fell asleep early last night. But then I had bad dreams all night, and kept waking up, only to fall asleep and have more bad dreams. I kept letting myself go back to sleep, holding out hope for something restful and refreshing before having to wake up and work, but by 10am, I gave up. I dealt with a few work things, but still mostly just don't feel like working right now, which isn't a good place to be, because I need to work. But I have a whole day ahead of me; it's cool, I have time. And yoga tonight isn't until 7:30, so I can take my time and still get to the gym and not have wasted my whole day. And with yoga at night, it'll end on a positive note.
It's just that right now I have a headache and the hauntings of a night full of bad dreams, and I kind of feel like giving myself the day off again. But that won't be helpful, especially after spending my last therapy session talking about ways to be more productive at my job. So I've got to turn this ship around, because I'll only feel worse if I don't. It's just easier said than done when I'm in a mood like this. But I guess I need to power through, to prove to myself that I can.
Here goes.
