What I’ve Been Up To Lately: Getting Out of the ✨Slump✨
Hi friends!
What a crazy February it was! From working to wedding planning to honeymoon planning to my best friend visiting to house cleaning (because the clutter never ends), there’s been a lot going on. Idk what self-diagnosis you want to call it, but whatever it’s called when you have so many things to do and so many things to accomplish at once that you eventually get overwhelmed and just shut down and do nothing – that’s been plaguing me for the last few weeks.
Things I’m Struggling With
If anyone has a cheat code for how to balance (and afford!) planning a wedding and honeymoon at the same time, while also having time to work, get tan, exercise, eat healthy, make silly little Tik Toks, write blogs, take care of 2 dogs, and keep a house spotless, PLEASE let me know (I’m literally begging). In the evenings, I want to relax so I tell myself I’ll figure things out in the morning/during the day. Then in the morning and during the day, I tell myself I’ll just sit down and figure it all out in the evenings. Then I get home and I’m too tired to do anything and the cycle repeats itself day after day with me getting increasingly stressed about all of the things that aren’t getting done.😅 And, if you want to take it even a step further, also factor in the state of our world right now (the Epstein files, the fact that world leaders, politicians, celebrities and athletes are all satan worshipping cannibals and everything we think we know is a lie – you know, the usual) that really takes any motivation I have left, rips it by the balls and throws it out the window. (I may have to make an entirely separate post just about all of that shit because why aren’t more people talking about it?!?!)
Staying Positive
However, that all being said, there are still little joys in every day that are important to notice. It’s officially spring (March 1st is the official start of spring idc what anyone says), it’s almost daylight savings time, I have a nice tan brewing thanks to the beach and my Zoom Tan membership, thunderstorm season is rapidly approaching, I’m getting married in 11 months and the time from now until then will consist of lots of celebrations with all of my favorite people. Call me crazy, but I can feel a big shift coming (in a good way), I just don’t quite know what it looks like yet.
Goals For the Next Few Months
Motivation, motivation, motivation!!! That’s the main goal. No more obsessing over whatever violent, crazy depressing story they are showing on the news (and by news, I mean TikTok), no more slumping on the couch and ignoring the house chores (don’t get me wrong, I love a good couch slump as much as the next guy, but chores come first, slumps come second). I want to eat clean, grow my own herbs and veggies, and crank up the exercise so future wedding Madeline can have a flat tummy and a dumpy!
If you’re in the same boat and feel like you’re a fish flailing around out of water in desperate need of replenishment, just know I’m right there with you. Maybe it’s something in the air (like the chemicals the government is using to poison us with 🤔) or maybe my brain just needs a mental reset but one way or another we are all going to get to where we want to be! Flow state ✨incoming✨
