Rollercoaster...of moods, not Love

I got the song "Roller coaster of Love" in my head.  No idea where from.  I probably haven't heard it in years....but there is it. 

It jumped in my head when I was reflecting on how today went.   When it comes to my moods, it's been a roller coaster of mad, sad, tired, fine, a little happy.  Lots of fun. 

*weird thing that I hope helps me.....I'm actually sharing with my husband more of my feelings.  Like saying them instead of letting him guess what crazy person he'll be dealing with.  Other than telling him I'm moody I've never really shared with him details.  We'll see how this makes a difference or not on my successfully pulling myself back up.*

So...this morning started at 2 am with weird dreams.  Not scary dreams, but weird.  I had a hard time resting.  I attributed it to some anxiety over jury service.  I'm not scared of jury service, but it's a change in routine so I was somewhat worried and did my visualization (visualized it going well) but it basically went down a rabbit hole of crazy since that's where I'm living. 

When I got up with my alarm- I did my gratitude and had my pink drink. 

My breakfast was a clean protein bar since it's earlier than I wanted to eat and enjoyed it in the car.  I packed a Lean meal replacement and apple for lunch, and cheese crackers for a snack.  I had drank my Active for energy around 9 AM, then ate the apple and cheese crackers around 10 in the Jury room...and lunch was delayed until after 1 because we got dismissed and I ran to the store.

I'm sure this delay in food did not help my moods.

Dinner tonight was taco night- I mean it's Taco Tuesday, right?  I had my balance, one taco, a small serving of rice and the rest basically as a salad.   I didn't even finish my plate- still not super hungry from my delayed lunch.  Even though it was a shake- those Lean meal replacements can fill a person up!

Right before 7 PM- when I'm going to start cutting myself off from eating- I had a snack of sliced pineapple and cottage cheese! Yum!  One of my favorites.

I'll be ending my evening with lots more water (I've already had 8 16-oz bottles today) and a few meetings!

Tomorrow morning I get up early to run!  (oh, I walked today to get my steps in- so moved at least 30 minutes to hit goal!)

Thanks for listening to my daily drama.  I didn't hit anyone- so there's always hope for tomorrow though.  I almost cried in the car, but I didn't.  

Blessings in Health and Happiness.
