Not My Best Day..

Do you ever have one of those days where you just struggle? Nothing seems "in place" from your balance to your cognition to your ability to stay awake (generally). Yep that was my day today....I got up at my normal time and went to the office, as usual.

I discovered once I had used all of my energy to get up, shower, get in the car and make the 30 minute drive, that I just wasn't going to last the whole 9 or 10 hour day. So I did what I thought was best....I told my boss and co-workers that this just wasn't my best day and I came home to snuggle. And snuggle I did....in my big bed with my portable desk laptop and beautiful dog Maggie.

What I have learned? On those days where you have health struggles and you are not at your best (or even close to it).....you need to listen to your body and try to find some comfort. Mine was snuggling with Maggie and my laptop for the rest of the afternoon. And trying to get some work done to make myself feel better about my "lack of cognition" earlier in the day. As I snuggle here at almost 9 pm.....I feel better, emotionally, productively and I'm smiling.

I hope to not always struggle with physical challenges, but when I do I know how to turn my "not best day" into a peaceful one.....
