Ugh! Rough Day! Yesterday

I thought I posted this yesterday, but it turns out this got posted to my other blog. Apparently Blogger decided to reorder my blogs on my Dashboard and I was on autopilot. Plus I was really tired yesterday. Today is much better.

I woke up from a nightmare at 3:30 AM this morning. I dreamt Phoebe was kidnapped. Couldn't go back to sleep. Wasn't thinking about the nightmare, kept thinking about work. That usually never happens to me. Then I started watching a movie to take my mind off things. Ended up watching Showgirls (movie) on cable. Kyle McLaughlin is in that movie and it's only redeeming feature. I had coffee and a danish at 6:30AM and it gave me heartburn, which is very unusual for me. I took a Pepcid and got in the shower, drove to work drinking water, trying to calm my stomach down. I didn't eat anything right away. Looked at work emails. One of my managers resigned today. Ugh. I'm already trying to hire two people in that area. Guess I now have one more I need. Then I talked with a co-worker, as I was feeling sensitive about something work related, which is what was keeping me up. I know I'm being sensitive as I'm tired. I felt better after talking to her, got some coffee and a muffin and I've been feeling a bit better. Now I just feel off.

I talked to DH and he's been out of town overnight. He said he slept horrible last night too. So did one of my other co-workers. Must be something going around. I'm sure everything will be better tomorrow. Or at least after dinner. I'm making my vegetarian stir fried noodles tonight. Last time I made that, the boys were licking the sauce off their plates, they liked it so much. All I do want to do right now is go home and snuggle my three kids. That would make everything be

Thank goodness it's the weekend! Hope you sleep better tonight.
And then I didn't sleep well on Thursday night but that's because I was worrying about a meeting.

Hope you had a better day and that this weekend is all kinds of normal fabulousness :)

Stopping the Voices in my Head - aka Mastering my Mindset

The more I work on my personal development, the more I realize I need to stop listening to and changing the negative things I tell myself in my head.  I'm also noticing the older I get the more the negative things I hold as beliefs about myself are not true.  This reinforces that I should second guess the other negative beliefs I hold inside ... maybe those are not true either.  Here are a few things I've realized are not true: I need help to put air in my car tires - This was one of the first things I learned as my husband had to move to Colorado for work. I did this at the Wawa up the street where the machine will stop and beep when your tires are at the right pressure.  I also learned and committed to memory that the pressure you want your tires at is inside your gas cap, something I have to open at least once a week.  This was something that was super easy to learn to do and had me zipping along the roads in a few minutes without the anxiety...

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni...

Here's Phoebe's 5th Grade School Picture.  I really like her in red or bright colors.  She's definitely becoming quite the little lady.
