Been feeling a bit off kilter lately?
You’re not alone.
All over the country, folks are suffering from a case of the mehs. Symptoms include deep sighs, persistent headaches and ever decreasing patience with children who will not put on their goddamn shoes.
The cause is a phenomenon well known to astrologists; retrograde Mars is sex-pestering Venus.
Astrological sex-pestering packs extra punch this time of year because it coincides with Pluto whining.
All this and the end of the school term? It’s a wonder Venus doesn’t spontaneously combust!
Last week was R U OK? Day. I love the concept, but with its increasing popularity each year, I wonder if it’s become a bit affected.
It feels like the office social club have squeezed in an R U OK? Day morning tea between planning the Melbourne Cup Day luncheon and the Christmas Party. Any attention to mental health is wonderful, but I’d rather check on my friends throughout the year.
This year R U OK? Day coincided with Suicide Prevention Day and the coverage was extensive.
My favourite commentary was this from the ladies at Champagne Cartel.
So, my friends, are you suffering a case of the mehs or feeling a bit low?
Don’t wait for the wheels to fall off before you call the mechanic.
If you need a chat, I’m all ears – send me an email.
Ahhhhhh it’s all sex pestering Venus’s fault then!! I’ve had a very wobbly week this week I’m doing good. Thanks for asking chick. I hope you’re doing good too :))
I’m about fifteen hours from good Robyn. We’re heading off on a camping trip tomorrow. Isn’t it funny how we run our tanks empty in order to have a break?
It’s good to know WHY.. Yeah? I’m having s pretty crap year trying to transition life as a retiree (long story/ see my blog!) and I’m getting help. Need it. No shame. Asking & telling is a good thing. Thanks for posting .. How are you anyway? D x
Asking and telling is a wonderful thing Denyse. The more we talk about it, the more we encourage people to join in and talk too.
I’m good and I’m glad you have a plan. xx
Funny timing this post. Actually not doing so well at all this past few weeks. Hubby has found himself injured again, and while small, it has resulted in surgery and a flash back for me to last year when I thought I might lose him to a head injury. Happy to hear I can say it’s Venus’s fault. Thank you for the vent xxx How are you?
You can’t muck with health, can you Nicole? I think I read that he’s on the mend?
P.S. I don’t think Venus is to blame. She’s being sex-pestered, and we all know about that right? 🙂
Reading these comments I am kinda glad it is not just me. This past fortnight has been extra meh and all dragging feet. Lets hope Venus tells Mars in no uncertain terms that she has a headache soon and it will sweep these blue days away.
Yes it’s been a bit of slump around these parts – I’m hoping with summer will come incredible vitality! x
