Some days are better than others. Some days are fabulous, and others are ... well, just terrible! Yesterday was one of those days. The usually awful, the kind where you think: "How could have been worse?" And then he does. But I was determined not to let the best of me!
It 'started with me. Yes, I have the tone for the day, and I jumped. I'm in this bad mood, this RF. I have no time to compose myself praying, or breathing or ... I continued to link together allThings that I thought I'd do.
Then Jason, my 3 year old started having a bad day. He really whiny and grim, as sporadic with his sister and his mom does not listen. Did not work out. Nothing worked. And certainly do not handle everything well.
So, after watching Jason, because such a curmudgeon, I said: "This must stop, we will make this a good day!" So we decided to go to our local pool. It 'was a beautiful summer day.Swimming perfect climate. I gathered our things together (not an easy task, as you know for sure), and we went over to go swimming.
By the time we went to reception to check in, it started to rain rain. Out of nowhere! I thought: "Well, you bathe in any case, you have been able to play in the rain!" So, I'm changing them in a bathing suit to swim diapers, coat them with sunscreen in the locker room. We welcome your head out the door to the pool area, when I heard a bigRumbling and blowing whistles all the lifeguards. Thunder, great. Now we can not swim for 30 minutes, and swim free end in an hour. That's it. Let's go home!
I try to explain to my children as we left the car on foot, as well as the beautiful, quiet, empty swimming pool while the sun shines. The only song that I sing the 'no-good-bad-day blues! "And I can not wait to fall to the ground and my own whims.
I had to go through the supermarket on the way home stop(Weeping and wailing in the back seat). In the shop I saw a beam of light from heaven on a field in the toy: a slide! The angels were singing, cheering my kids! Yes! I save the remains of that horrible day! Nobody can stop me now! I .... a slip and slide!
I invited more than a few little friends, and they were happy shouts of joy in my backyard. I sat on my seat, playing with my ice water with lemon slice to look at my children and I felt sohappy.
The purchase of a slide is definitely not the answer to all life's problems, but has some help. Here are some things I've learned how to help, again a bad day into a good, if you have kids.
1) Hugs & Kisses. This will go a long way in every situation. Healing can be spread by bad attitudes (both mother and child) to boo-boos, and make sure that all the love.
2) Step outside and breathe fresh air. When all hell breaks loose in the house, a rapid testVent outside. Apnea for 4, 4, 8 and helps to send oxygen to the brain, it is necessary to manage the chaos of family with clarity and kindness. And while you're out, say a prayer. We need all the help we can!
3) Change the scenery. If you are all there, go outside. If you are outside, go inside. If you are stuck underground, turn off and unplug the Lego. Jump to a friend's house or have a few friends. You get the idea.
4)Do something fun as a family. Read a book on the couch together. Make Rice Krispy it. Color. Build a fort with sheets. The concentration of a fun project off the fire, what (or maybe who) was sick before.
5) Do something for someone else. If you make Rice Krispy These are, take a friend. If you are coloring, draw something and post it to grandma.
6 silly). Making a dancing fool. Sings a song stupid. Have a tickle fight. Allow everyone to participate.
7) hasMcDonalds or pizza for dinner. I do not know how it is when you are at home, but I immediately upgraded to superhero status, both when we have these things for dinner.
8) Go to bed early. If all else fails, go to bed early (including you) and call it a day. Things are better in the morning.
If the day is in a downward spiral, and sing the 'no-good-bad-day blues "to shoot a couple of these suggestions for things to help you and your family! I use it on aregularly!
