Grumpy

I am stunningly grumpy today, for a lot of reasons, none of which are really too justifiable. 
I've been rejected from a juried show, I am struggling with a personal relationship, a family member is hospitalized, a friend broke her arm, I couldn't get myself out to do my job and my art work is simply NOT GETTING DONE.  So I stay awake at night worrying about it all and am too tired during the day to address any of it. 
In reality, I worked in the gallery all morning, I am doing laundry, the kitchen is clean, I am finishing a sewing project and have gifts and cards ready for Mom for Mother's Day.  A little credit here, please!
Wonder why I need to be so hard on myself?  Wonder what it will take to change that?  Didn't I just read a book that talked about this whole issue?  Here it is, in fact, right by my elbow...One Step Can Change Your Life.  Now I'm looking for the part about self-directed anger.  (And having a bit of blackberry wine.)
