Dang, today was a rough day.  I try to take the kids out of of the house at least once a day, but we have kind of been cooped up the last couple of days.  We left, but not until after Brian got home, so it really doesn't count, and the damage has been hardcore.  They get defiant and naughty, and I get grouchy and short-fused.  Not fun for any of us. 

The hubs decided to take me on a date since I was feeling deflated and cut off from the world.  We decided to just do dinner since my mom had the kids, and it was not so good.  At all.  My sushi was less than stellar, and my spider roll (which I totally ate against doctor's orders) had cilantro in it.  Gross to the max.  Then while we were buying the last of our Christmas making supplies we both got sick.  Awesomesauce. 

So date night helped a little, mostly because I have a great husband and he makes me laugh with his nuttiness.  And the fact that I can say something ridiculous and he thinks it funny.  And because he thinks my SpiritHood is sexy. 

And I think my empathy is turned up a little too high these days.  I was feeling totally fine, then I read @JenFriel's psych ward post, and it really...brought me down.  I felt so proud of her for being able to share and grow from the experience, but the pain she went through turned into my pain.  Empathy has always been one of my biggest assets, but it doesn't always work that way, I suppose.  I have to find a way to dial it back to some sort of manageable level so I don't get so defeated when someone else is hurting.  Silly silly. 

Meh, find me on TwitterAnd Facebook.   And goodnight.
