I Want a Redo!

ever have those days - wanna take out the 'redo' card and slam it on the table - where you just wanna hit 'rewind' - get all the way to the part when your just about to get out of bed - THEN at that moment - don't! - stay in bed for that day - b/c the day ahead of you is just too much to handle! - YUP, my day yesterday!


i'm not a crier - i've even been accused of having no emotions - oh well yesterday i threw that theory out the window - i was a hysteric balling mess! - and for the record, i DO have feelings/emotions! *thank you*


but by the end of the day - i was OK - my dearest friend EVER called - she knew what was going on with my life - and of course - remembers and calls to check up - she's always a ball of support!


it's funny when the world around you is crumbling - who are the people that stick with you in the hole! - those my Butterflies are the cherished souls i admire! - the rest, yup you guessed it - SEE YA!


i don't give up - i know my Mom will never give up - i know i am surrounded by a tremendous amount of love - and i know in the end, i'll look back and say "wasn't so bad"


life lesson i was taught yearS ago - "Fake it till you make it" - right on brotha', right on!

had Asher Roth 'Bad Day' on in the car yesterday without even realizing it - it was one of those - 'holy crap, seriously, i'm so there with ya!' - i had a bad day!


by the end of the night i was calm and at peace - i realized perfection is all in my head - everything will get done and be 'perfect' - not to stress - and everything will be fine - it always is! 


so today - back up and at em' - postive - strong - looking forward - all with a smile too!

TO AN AWESOME DAY!

How do you Butterflies feel about "bad days"?
Easy to bounce back or takes you a bit?

  1. Oh dear sorry to hear you had a really bad day but I'm glad you have some butterflies to lift your spirits. When I have a bad day I try to shrug it off & calm down because there is a new day just a few hours near. Crying helps too. I hope your day is better sweetie!

  11. I think we all need those days when we just let ourselves be vulnerable and let it all come out. Its cleansing. Once I get it all out I can see so much clearer and know I will be able to take on any hardship. Much love to you and your mom. Keeping you in my thoughts, lovey.

  12. Bad days help us appreciate the really great days and your quotation about happiness not being perfection is totally on point. we're happy when we can survive through the less than awesome moments and learn how to make the most of them. optimism will take you all the way in this world :)

  13. I agree - bad days help us appreciate the good ones and you know that when you've had a bad day, a good one is just around the corner!

  14. I'm so sorry to hear you had such a bad day.. I definitely think it's so important to accept our feelings, let ourselves cry, get angry, etc and then it's easier to move on to a better day. It sounds like you are doing better already and I'm so glad. Here's to an awesome day for you! xo

  18. I would love to be able to re-do a day, especially that one where I decided drinking Jaggermeister right from the bottle was a good idea : {
    I hope you're having a better one today! Sometimes it's good to just let it go and have a nice cry.

    xoxo

  21. Cheers to an awesome day indeed! Funny how the people you need most can always just sense it even if they dont' really sense it. When I'm having a bad day my mom always seems to know without me telling her. Timing is everything sometimes!
