The happier side!!

I realized that I typed out the "all the emotions" post and it definitely highlighted the negative emotions--which I can't ignore because they are powerful beasts who won't let me ignore them. (jerks.)

So, here is the happier side of things! They exist too. Ah, the dialectic.

How could I not highlight the fact that:

1. Drinks with our friends was superb. I am so glad they popped by! I loved watching the kiddos scooter around! So much fun to focus on non-cancerous things!

2. Bagels with Sophia was a true highlight! I needed her friendship more than anything, and I can't begin to express my gratitude that she suggested a visit. #cryingagain #thegoodtears

3. Dinner with Chris was delightful! I love these evenings. I would be his dinner date every night forever. I am so happy when we are together and being normal and pretend amateur restaurant critics. (Well I am pretend; Chris is yelp elite.) 

4. Doing the laundry made me feel useful and normal. I shouldn't throw shade at laundry ever. 

So, it isn't all bad. It is just hard. 

Ok, back to work and distracting myself! 

It is going to be ok. <-- The mantra on repeat in my head.
