Today I actually Actifitted, instead of just worked for my tally!! Woohoo, got nearly 32k steps in. I really needed to change things up, we had been having a miserable morning. Here's the details and pictures:
Took my wife to work 7am. 3 1/2 hours sleep, so I was tired and stressed after a horrible night at work. The kids start fighting and squabble on and off for a couple of hours. It all flares up and my son ends up in big trouble, slamming his toys into the wall, causing damage. I lose my cool and really go off at him.
None of this was their fault, they are on holidays and bored out of their brains, as we have done nothing so far. So, after about 5 minutes, once I realised I was being a terrible father, I calmed down, and then felt like shit. I had really upset my son (who is very mildly autistic).
Needing to completely change the whole situation, I put the kids in the car and went for a drive. We ended up at the foreshores and beach area nearby, and went for a walk. Some fresh air and sunshine did all three of us so much good, and brightened the day massively.
Looking down on Diggers Beach, Coffs Harbour.
The kids climbing the rocks.
On the path up to the headland.
Had to look out to sea so the sun wasn't in their eyes.
Spirits lifted, we then picked my wife up and went home.
Then I went to work and did my usual 20k steps for the night. The arvo was tough, with some major I.T. issues causing so much hassle, but the night went smoothly and we got out on time.
I didn't realise how much we needed to get out and do something to improve our mood.
Thanks for reading,
A happier John.
