Mid-Week Martini Boost

Over the last week I’ve been on a rollercoaster of emotions – high, low, and everything in between. True to form, I immersed myself into the daily grind and just tried to keep busy. By Wednesday – only halfway to the weekend – my energy had visibly waned. Being my better half, Jay, can often sense my restlessness; and he tries his best to ease my inner turmoil. Tonight I came home to a nice martini, a bowl of sweet strawberries and J finishing up our closet makeover (#ladyporn). For days I felt as if I was holding my breath, just waiting for the other shoe to drop, but when I realized what Jay had done for me, I literally exhaled for what felt like the first time in a long time. And before the vodka even touched my lips, I could feel the tension in my shoulders dissipate. In that moment, I was reminded that life isn’t easy or fair, but if you have the right people beside you…it’s worth it.
