End 38- happy 4th of July! Ok so with a bit of help I realized I was in a funk on top of actual BS going on in my life, and today I said hello to my old friend 'the suck'... Well I know that means I am winning, and I still had fun at my brithers b-day party (yes he is a real Yankee Doodle) I swam, had a mint julip (with my own homegrown mint), took the kids to a good fireworks. It was all good but also: it all sucked. I think it was worse this time because I am having real issues with my family (thank God nothing catastrophic but bad enough) and knowing that part of my crap mood was likely due to the nic bitch left me confused as to how pissed I should be with anyone about anything. I decided to just try my best to be patient, and sort it all out later... I will not cave. I will live with 'the suck' till it passes, and I will try not to take it out on my friends and family even if that means giving out a few free passes which they may or may not deserve... Going to bed now I will post roll in the a.m. and QLF tommorow.
