Car

Let’s see. It’s been a little over two weeks since someone tried to steal my car, again. I’m still trying to get it back, thanks to insurance not originally wanting to pay for all the work needed to fix it.

Hell Week

We made it, successfully, through another hell week for my youngest. The performances were great. The work I put in as the wrangler of children is a lot, and it takes a toll on my body and my mental health.

Blog and Social Media

Today wrapped up my 30-day Meditation Challenge. It was a lot of work. I definitely had to learn some new things, like video editing. In the beginning, my youngest said she would do the videos with me, but she changed her mind. That means that I had to come up with ways around having a live subject for the videos. I have doubled the amount of posts I’m doing on social media. Some to go with the challenge, some for mental health awareness month, and some just because. But neither the challenge nor my social media is getting any traction. I’m spending hours working on these things and have nothing to show for it.

Look, I know it takes time. I know I just have to keep putting in the work. But it is pretty damn heart-wrenching to keep putting in this much work and have my numbers go down. They aren’t even staying steady, they are dropping.

Makes me wonder if I should even bother continuing. Why bother putting so much time, energy, and research into something that isn’t going to go anywhere?

Wrap Up

Anyways. I’m done feeling sorry for myself tonight. Or at least, I’m done pouring it out on the page for strangers to read.

Keep your head up. Remember that it is okay to not be okay. Take a few minutes each day to do something for your mental health. Listen to a favorite song, meditate, take some deep breaths, take a walk, or have a snack. Just something that will give you a pickup.
