wednesday, april 18


i'm very out of sorts lately, feeling conflicted and overly emotional. the other day i got a bit snappy with the sales lady and told her she wasn't being very australian. what? who says that...out load. i left thinking about how ugly my behavior was and how quickly it could snowball. i wanted to go home crawl into bed and wrap myself in wool. only it was to warm, to beautiful, and far to sunny for that sort of thing. it's left me aching for a crisp autumn afternoon cozied up in knitwear while reading the stack of health magazines my mom has left behind.

  1. I had been thinking about you. I'm sorry to hear that you have been feeling out of sorts, it's such a horrible feeling to feel. I have had some not so happy moments lately too, just trying to get focussed and give myself a little time just for me. I hope that you feel better soon:) x

  2. It's funny...I've also been thinking of you. I hope this feeling passes soon. Some time in bed reading sounds perfect for soothing the soul. Take care xx

  6. I always got that way when I went home after visiting my mom (or daughters). As my mom would say, "this too will pass." Until then, don't beat yourself up, I'm sure one day we'll have a "support group" for this too ;-D! XOXO

  9. Hi
    Sounds like a normal feeling after having time with your Mum. I have been there too. Spend time at the beach with your boys and you'll feel heaps better.
    Cheers

  14. From the sounds of things you're not alone. But I do hope you feel better soon. xx

    ps. if it makes you feel better I told the lady (at a Vinnies!) the other day that she was horrible and I cant wait to get out of her shop! (and I yelled out the last part really loud)
