Low

We all have those days where you just say, "Wow. Really?" Today is that day for me.. and it's only 8:00 in the morning! 

I have been up since 5 AM with Beatrice. I haven't slept passed 7 AM since I don't know when. I was summoned by Bea, so I went to get her out of her crate. I took her to the bathroom to eat,and I was going to sit down on the floor beside her. I was tired. I wasn't really aware of my surroundings. As my head went down, my eye socket connected with the door handle. That was problem #1. Problem #2 followed quickly. I was having breakfast with the parentals when I accidentally knocked over my drink- with no lid. It went everywhere . Beatrice, meanwhile, was screaming (literally, her bark sounds like a scream when it gets intense enough). Problem #3 is now taking place. I am sitting in my living room wearing my black sweats; my eye socket is throbbing.  I am not confident that my eye won't pop out at any second. I have dark circles under my eyes. My hair is...  well I don't know what my hair is. It is not "in place". I'm still quite thirsty (but that can be amended as soon as I finish up here). And you know what the ironic thing about this whole ugly mess is? 

I signed up for every bit of it.

I had no idea that bringing home a new puppy would result in chaos like this. I had no idea that the changes I have made recently in my life would heap all this stress on my shoulders. I had no idea that I could feel this low. And yet I press on. I re-read my "Just Keep Pushin'" post... and that was for me. I gotta keep going. 

I know that "this too shall pass". I just feel so low.
