Just a day
Some Days Just Are
June 15, 2025

Today was… a day. Definitely not what I expected or had planned.

Family didn’t come over this morning like I thought they would and while that’s out of my control, it still stung a little. On top of that, I got hit with some horrible news. It’s not something I can share on social media, but it really put me in a tough headspace all day. Just sad. Helpless. Like my hands are tied.

I still got my movement in, even though I’m not counting it as an official challenge day (Sundays are usually my off days anyway). But I needed to get outside tonight to breathe, to reset. So I did. I spent time in the fresh air with my daughter and grand daughter until late was nice , and I’m so glad I did. Sometimes that’s the only thing that helps.

Later, I talked to this guy I’ve been chatting with for a few days. And… yikes. He got inappropriate way too fast. Honestly, I don’t get it. That kind of energy is such a turn off. It shows a complete lack of emotional intelligence and respect. I don’t know why dating is like this lately, but I can tell you this: I know exactly what I want, deserve, and need. And I definitely don’t need someone who disrespects boundaries right out the gate.

So, I’m going to keep this one short. I’m off to read and relax a little. Tomorrow’s a new day, and I have some plans I’m looking forward to.

Before I go, I just want to say Father’s Day isn’t easy for everyone, and if today was hard for you, I see you too. You’re not alone. 💙
