One Day at a Time

Today.

Today is one of those days where I’d really like to just curl up in bed and sleep. I’m tired. It’s cold and gloomy outside. It has been raining off and on all day.

And for some reason I’m just in a funk. I’m down on myself for my situation. I’m disappointed in myself for being where I am.

And I guess I’m stressed about what has to happen in the months to come.

I think today’s funk started when I had to type out my story for someone. I am applying for a tv show and had to explain what my situation is like. Some days I just get so disappointed in the choices I’ve made. I wish I could turn back time and fix so many things.  I wish I could go back and educate myself while still in high school.  I wish I knew about personal finance back then.

It’s difficult to be optimistic on days like today but if I’ve learned one thing during all this and that is to take one day at a time.

I think I will make a couple of goals for today and that is all I will focus on doing.

1. Complete the laundry.

2. Clean up the kitchen.

3. Do something fun with the kids.

That’s it for the rest of the day. Tomorrow I will make new goals to get me through the new day.
