funk

Sorry I've been away; I've been in a funk. On top of my everyday funk I've had some additional funk lately. I've been stressed out and impatient with the girls, which makes me feel like crap. I've become emotional about politics; I'm starting to take differing opinions personally, which makes me feel like crap. And, oh yeah, the company Alex works for laid everyone off...including Alex, which really makes me feel like crap.

Wow...I'm so amazed by the eloquence of this post. {See? funk.}

I'm so sorry to hear about this turn of events. I won't be cheerful and say things like "chin up" and all that. sometimes a funk is totally warranted.

but I am hoping things turn around soon...

I'm sorry.

I won't put little notes on your Obama signs now.

Let us know if there's anything you need.

Seriously

That just sucks, Christy. Especially the part about Alex.

I am the Queen of Funks, so I totally understand. Thinkin' of you.

Wes said...

Crap. It's Jenny... not Wes. We're both terrible about logging off.

Dawn said...

I think you are completely warranted in wallowing in your funk. Sometimes life situations just stink and I'm sorry that you are having to deal with the stress of your current crappy situation. My heart is with you friend. Love you.

Ugh, I don't like funks- and I have them often! I'm sorry things are rough right now.

Oh man...sorry to hear about your husband being laid off! I say, embrace the funk and use it to eat an extra daily dose of chocolate :). Down with the funk!

I am so sorry to hear your news. I feel the funk cloud looming over our house too. Hang in there.

Oh shit. What the heck. That kind of seems like it came out of nowhere. And as Dawn said, you are totally warranted to be in a funk. If there's anything I can do, you let me know. XOXO.

I'm so sorry Christy. No wonder you're stressed out! I hope things improve soon.

Sorry to hear that you are in a "funk", I hate when I feel like that and then I get mad at myself for being in a funk....the funk gets funkier.

Seriously, sorry to hear about Alex's job. That is really stressful. Hope you feel better soon.

Jennifer said...

Girl, this sucks. I hope things start to head upwards very soon.

Mike Leonard said...

I'm sorry about Alex, and the funk.

Heather said...

Somehow sorry does not feel sufficient. Not sure why we are often molded into thinking that having a bad day, week, month, is something we should feel guilty about. Sounds like things suck right now. I wish you brighter days soon...

Danika said...

Christy, that SUCKS. We will be thinking of you, and I hope your funk is short-lived.

Christy, I'm so sorry about Alex! Sounds like lots of people are in a funk with the economy situation as it is right now!
