Proud of Myself Even Though It's a Bad Day
I had a terrible day today. I happened to comment on FB that I was working on a project for my favorite client and mention how much I loved working with them. Not 5 hours later, I received a contract termination notice from them due to budget issues. This has been a terrible few months for me. I can't work outside the home due to health issues, but I am not "disabled," so I have to work and earn money. I do so by freelance writing and, until August, had a booming business. Google changed the way they rank websites and, as a result, many of my clients either closed up shop or cut back on their content publishing. I have lost thousands of dollars in income and now I don't even know how I'm going to pay the bills or pay for my upcoming wedding.
On the bright side, my first thought was "I really want Ben & Jerry's," but then my second thought was "don't eat your feelings." I did put a little extra shredded cheese on my chili, but I'll still be below 1300 calories for the day, so I'm not too worried about it.
