Funk

I am in a funk this week. I don’t want to work. I don’t want to lunch with my coworker or friends. I don’t want to shop. (HB is pumping his fist in the air as he reads that sentence) Hell, I don’t want to leave the house, or better yet, the couch! I’m not depressed but I am TIRED. It’s more of a mental exhaustion than a physical one. I need three days of naps and girlie movies to snap out of this funk and feel like myself again. BUT, since this is the real world and I have real bills to pay, I can’t do that. Instead, I made a list of things to think about to help me feel rejuvenated.

A massage! I need 90 minutes of warm oil, strong hands and Swedish Bliss!

Flowers! A fresh bouquet to brighten up my office.

Rocky Road Fudge! Yummy! I have been so good with my diet this week but this would be a great treat!

A Swimming Pool! With a good book and SPF 10!


I am feeling better just thinking about those things! What gets you out of a funk?

Thank you so much for your nomination!! It truly made my day. And I'm so glad to have found your blog, though at this point I'm not even sure how I can to find you, but I'm glad nonetheless :)
When I'm in a funk, I tend to go shopping and buy pretty things. A margarita or a glass of wine helps too. Or a good run!

i found your blog through sensibly sassy and i really enjoy it! i feel like i relate to almost everything you have to say!

i was in a funk a couple of weeks ago and i got out of it by facing it head-on and pulling myself out. easier said than done, yes, but just focus on the positive things you mentioned and i'm sure things will be better in no time. in the mean time, treat yourself to some rocky road fudge and maybe even a "sick" day full of chick flicks.

Thanks for the comments! A good Margarita and a sick day sounds perfect! :-)

Aahhh. I could use all of those de-funk-ify treats myself! Seriously, I hope you do it!

Another thing that helps me get out of a funk is to help someone else, like someone needy. It really works!
