Today was a bad day for me.

Everything and everyone irriated me. I couldn’t help it. No matter what I did I could not improve my mood.

My sisters are over at the house tonight with the kids and dogs, and all I wanted to do was get out of the room.

Nothing against them, not at all. I just didn’t want to be around people. I snapped at my niece, and then I knew it was time to leave the house for awhile.

I spent a couple hours driving around, just wandering with no direction or plans. I found myself driving past Eden hospital, the place where I was born, the place where my sisters were born too–and also the place where my mom died.

As I drove past the hospital I kept looking up to that top floor, the neurology wing, the last place I saw my mom. It was… surreal.

Sigh.

I wandered for a bit longer and finally made it home. Not happy at all to be there, but with nowhere else to go.
