Groundhog Day????

Okay so today is Wednesday...I think. There really isn't a great distinction now that I don't work. I don't know if anyone who reads this has seen the movie Groundhog Day...it wasn't a great movie but for some reason it was somewhat memorable to me. For those of you who haven't seen it you didn't miss much but basically it was about this reporter (played by Bill Murray) who is sent to this tiny town to cover the Groundhog Day festivities and basically he keeps repeating the same day over and over again and it continues until he becomes a better person or something.

I feel like the character in the movie. Going through the motions of my days...my pretty much identical days.

Even considering I am stuck in my same old ho hum routine I am still happier than I have been in way too long. I feel like myself again. I feel like there were so many things about me and aspects of my personality that were buried so deep under stress that they were pretty much forced to lay dormant for a very long time. From the moment I lost my job and that stress was forever removed I felt myself coming back to life again in a way. I fell like my sense of humor and the little bit of creativity that I have are coming back to life and that is a GREAT thing. Life is too short not to be happy...I really need to remember to remind myself about that when I slip into my occasional funks.

  3. It's good that you're happy, even if life is monotonous.
    Do your kids go to preschool everyday or just a few days a week? Most libraries have story time once a week for young children. I used to look forward to Thursday mornings because we were sure to get out of the house for story time.
