Hump Day Blues

Does anyone else get down and out on Wednesdays? Apart from Wednesday Addams, there is nothing else about Wednesdays that I like.

I wish I had a positive message like “ten ways to beat the Wednesday blues” or “cheer up, you are halfway to the weekend.” But sometimes I think it is okay to just say “you know what, are you feeling a little down today? Me too.” Because everyone is having a tough time right now.

You might be feeling like you used to smile more but now, small things don’t cheer you up as much. You may be forcing yourself to watch comedies in the hope they distract you. (Might I recommend Schiit’s Creek if this sounds like you?) There is a possibility you are making your way through the chocolate aisle at your local CVS. (No, just me?) You may find yourself scrolling through photos on the internet that only feature baby animals because you need some comfort in your life.

And I’m here to say, I feel you. I’m not sure if it is comforting at all for a random stranger to be saying “I hear you on that, I feel your sadness and while I am not you, I am here to say you are not alone.”

So if you may be feeling a little down today, just know you aren’t alone. I wish I had some poetic ending to this post but I just don’t. Just take today one step at a time and we will all get through this.
