I woke up with a bit of a spring in my step this morning. I can’t put my finger on what exactly is different: maybe it’s the late night “thank-you” text I got from KM, maybe I had a good sleep, or maybe my brain just kicked into higher gear and decided I need to get back on track. Regardless, I feel better this morning than I have in a few days.
Aside from the inner struggles I was having yesterday, I also found out that my grandma was in a pretty serious car accident over the weekend. Thankfully, she is okay. However, there was a lot of emotional talking and counseling with both her and my mother yesterday afternoon and evening. My mom was bawling over the phone to me last night and in between her sobs she was saying, “I can’t believe we could be planning her funeral right now.” This scared me; It really hit home. Things could be worse… And here I am moping around for no good reason! Maybe that’s the change, right there.
Regardless of everything, the sun is shining brightly this morning: literally and figuratively… Things are brighter and clearer and warmer.
And the “Sno-go-pogo” would agree. After all, he was making a friendly appearance in our beautiful weather during my coffee break this morning!
