I had an interesting day today. I got very frustrated and angry...at my mom's wheelchair. We had a doctor's appointment and I had a lot of problems getting it into my car.
When you're trying to get your mom's wheelchair in your tiny car after multiple attempts and you're yelling at it and ineffectually hitting it, at what point do you realize it's not about the chair?
I think I had a lot of emotions boiling beneath the surface for awhile and just coming up against this problem that I couldn't immediately solve just made everyting explode.
I realized I need to confront these emotions and address them, not let them give me a mini breakdown in the driveway. Normally on a day such as today, I wouldn've let it ruin my entire day and naturally my diet would've gone down the crapper. But once we got home, I was able to take a nap and woke up with a new mindset. I cooked a healthy dinner for my famlily and actually went out with a friend. It helped clear my mind.
And my eating was really good today!
