I've noticed that the last few days I've been exceptionally cranky.
My attitude has been really crappy, I've been snapping at the kids, I have a very short fuse. And I'm just feeling under the weather.
But I couldn't put my finger on it, and today at MOPS a light bulb went off. I was talking to a friend there who asked how I was doing and I said I was OK, but it really comes and goes. I happened to glance down at my watch to check the time/date, and then it hit me.
December 15th. It was December 15th.
Exactly 10 years ago today I arrived in Germany to marry Barry. I left Edmonton, AB the night of the 14th, and arrived in Germany at 10:40 local time. And thus began the next 10 years of my life. We were married two weeks later.
Isn't it interesting how you forget days like this sometimes? And then it just hits you, and you realize that it affects you so much more than you realize. And the effects can last a few days even, as your body slowly recovers.
My appetite has been affected, as have been my moods. I was just exhausted this afternoon, and almost fell asleep on the couch. I had a headache as well, and a sore back.
Can I just sleep through till the middle of March so I can bypass all the sad days?

How I wish it were possible. My yuck month is September. I guess we need these terrible months so we realize how fabulous the rest are. At least that's what people say. I have a tough time believing though.
