I try not to let my blog become a daily diary. I like to think it's deeper than that. I must say though, the day started out rough. First, I have a cold and didn't sleep well at all. While getting ready for work, I notice some bills I've forgotten to pay. Then, while getting ready to leave for work, I dropped my iPhone on the tile in the bathroom, only to discover a few minutes later that the top quarter of the glass front had shattered. Parker came to the rescue and put a piece of protective adhesive on it. No worries, I thought. It's nothing that a trip to the Apple store can't fix, right? I get to work and show my phone to my co-workers who reacted with much horror. All the while I still have a smile on my face. I then went to my appointment with my counselor. We talked about the many changes I've made in my life and the great progress I've made. We spoke of my ambivalence in some areas of my life, my dissatisfaction in others, and my goals for the future. It was, as usual, a very good session.
Here's my confession: In retrospect, I probably should have crawled back in bed, covered my head and buried my head for the day. Yet, in reality, I don't know when I've been in a better mood. I've been so high on life today that it's almost frightening. Maybe the Lexapro has kicked into overdrive today, maybe I'm just THAT at peace with life. Whatever the case, I feel like I could conquer hell with a water pistol today. I'm almost at a loss for words to describe how I feel. Everything seems right in my corner of the world today. I'm not certain, but I think it's a feeling that I want to stay around.

I think the most important thing you said here was "I probably SHOULD have crawled back in bed"-the difference is that before you WOULD have, but this time you reacted differently. Being proactive about yourself, instead of passively letting life pass you by, is a very different experience than sitting around being depressed about an issue. Personal power is an amazing thing, once you kind of tune in to it...don't change that dial...
-conquering hell with a water pistol- I'm filing that line away for later use. I like it.
