20 minutes

This past week I have been just a constant emotion of grumpyness.... The dumb thing about my rotten mood is I can't even really tell you why I am in such a terrible one. I have allergies and I feel like I have had my head under water but that usually doesn't make me too upset. I have to have surgery next Friday, which I am pretty stressed about, but it isn't something that should make me this grumpy. 

I have asked a few friends what they do when they get in moods like this and if they even get in random irritated moods... They all said they did so that made me feel a lot better and a lot more normal. I have a friend, Kat, who said she exercises when she feels like that, which I normally would be up for but I can't do right now. My friend, Kenzie, suggested to go to a quiet room and unplug... turn off the phone, turn off the T.V and the computer, don't be distracted and think about things that just make me happy. 

Last night after Boston went to bed I tried it out.... I totally recommend it to anyone. I woke up feeling so much happier and content. I put myself on a 20 minute time out and just thought of what made me happy. I got my journal out after 20 minutes because I wanted to write some of the things down that made me so happy so I could remember them again, ya know, when I am bugged again at life... I included everything from Boston's silly faces, family dinners, the guy who has long hair and cardigans to Diet Coke, the Walking Dead returning and I got an update on a new phone for free.

So, excuse my slump lately. Boston and I have been doing great. I have a ton to blog about from last week and things coming up....If Boston were to make her own happy list it would include dance class, cousins, grandma and The Nightmare Before Christmas.
