What happened to good days?
It used to be that I would have 1 bad day a week, pretty much to the point I could set a clock to it.

These days I'm lucky if I get 1 good day a week.  I am feeling so down all the time, the kids are not doing their lessons or their chores, their attitudes stink and I think it's contagious.

Some people are saying that with me just recovering from being sick, quitting smoking and the new diet are too much at once.  What am I supposed to do?  I try to be happy and smiling when my dh gets home, but instead I am  ready to cry, need chocolate (Belgian Milk Chocolate would be great) and would sell my right arm for a cigarette.

I want my good days back.  I want to drown myself in chocolate (ok, so I won't do that part...but a girl can dream) and have a good day with the kids where lessons get done, attitudes are all positive (including my own) and my house is clean for more than 5 minutes.

It didn't happen today....I guess I'll try again tomorrow.  And hopefully before long I will get over wanting cigarettes too.  Like I was taught in a great program I started almost 5 yrs ago...God willing, one day at a time....
