ONE OF THOSE DAYS...

I've had one of those days.

Do you know how sometimes you DRIVE somewhere that you've been

a MILLION times,

and when you arrive and get out of the car you

AREN'T QUITE SURE HOW YOU GOT THERE?

You don't remember anything significant about the drive? It's almost a little EERIE. That was today for me. I did the usual stuff around the house, did some work, and ?? I can't even remember. It was an insignificant day. Now I know what you're thinking--there's no such thing. And you're right. I hate that today passed me by. I was here, alive and well in all the moments that today's 24 hours had to offer, and I feel like I blew it. But tomorrow's another day, and I resolve to be grateful, thankful, happy, and present in it.

I LOVE DO-OVERS!

Amen to that! If we didn't have do-overs, I don't know what I'd do!

I have been a kinda blah mood, so it seems like I haven't been getting anything done. I totally understand where you are coming from!!!

I don't know, I kind of like those "insignificant" days. It means things went fairly smoothly with no catastrophes or major stressors or battles. It means I had a fairly pleasant day with my kids who are still alive and well. We may forget small events, but we don't forget those feelings of overall contentment, love, and peace. I think you can look back and call it a good--though not great--day!

Huge fan of the Do-Over Day here! I was just giggling about this very thing with a friend at Cat's Irish dance class today! (I totally blame perimenopause!)

(I've missed ya! Blogger is still being a pooper and not helping me rejoin all the blogs I follow! I still have you in my reader so you can't get rid of me that easy! lol!)

We all have those days that pass us by now and then...I've been kind of under the weather the last few days so there's a few of them right there! Do-overs are always good, right?!!!!! xo

Stopping by from SITS...
That's the fun thing about life, you do get a chance for do-overs. And don't worry, this has happened to more people than care to admit it. And it is a little eerie sometimes. I hope today is better for you!

Stopping in from SITS - do they make coupons or something for d-overs? There are certainly days when I need one or some?!?!

Happy Tuesday to you - stop by my blog and enter my first ever giveaway - no following me, or blogging about it or all that other stuff, just look and comment - easy peasey!
