I think you are keeping expectations low which is a good thing, from the wedding ring cleaning to the MC "waving a magic wand". I think you are mentally in a good place.

Now the wasted another week comment does sound pessimistic. You are not mind reading but you are looking into a crystal ball and my friend they don't exist.

Only stress about things you can change and not events that have not even happened.

When in a funk, do something off the wall. I usually try something outside of my comfort zone.

One example is, instead of me just picking my kids up from summer school a few weeks ago I stayed there on the playground and played tag with ALL the kids in the school/mine included for half an hour. I was the full time "tagger!" And boy did everyone have fun and I was so tired!

My kids said their friends talked about what a fun dad they have for days.
