Slip-Slidin

That's kind of how I feel today - I'm slippin and slidin and not really getting anywhere. It's like the game we used to play at girl scout camp around the fire - fortunately/unfortunately. Fortunately, it was a nice warm day but unfortunately, it was raining, hence, no work done outside here only some leaf raking at Grandma's. Fortunately, I had time to do some jewelry and I had some good ideas, unfortunately, nothing seemed to work out due to wrong materials and no specific pattern. Fortunately, I didn't have to cook yesterday but unfortunately, there's still too much cake staring me in the face everyday. Fortunately I was able to have a good workout with my weights but unfortunately, despite scaling down the weights a bit, I'm still sore today because it's been a week since I exercised. Fortunately I'm getting plenty of sleep but unfortunately I feel sluggish and it really cuts into my day and after exercise, computer time, etc. I don't start my day until almost lunch (I'm exaggerating but it's still later than it should be). I guess it's not that I'm not accomplishing anything but it's like I'm taking 2 steps forward and 1 step back. I'm wondering where that optimistic person is inside of me - she might be buried under too much marble cake!
