- In the first 30 days of Session, our office received one gift (nice chocolates) from a house member. In the last week, we have gotten 5 – donuts (x2), bagels, a king cake. When it rains, it pours! It just means I am ingesting WAY more carbs than I should. PLUS, a Thursday birthday and someone made key lime pie. Thank God for Monday fasts.
- Thursday I was feeling very good. I had all my ducks in a row, I crunched budget numbers for the next few months and felt solid, and I even calculated how much leave I’ll have and need and that’s all balanced. Then this morning, I am in a terrible mood. Just generally down.
- I hate to bring negativity to the blog but man am I just blah. I know it’s life and sometimes we don’t feel right and just sort of want to stop and cry but in the moment, that always feel really awful.
- OK, let’s be positive in these last two. Only 29 days left in session. Hopefully it’ll go fast; February already is. I know the final two weeks will be nuts but honestly, this Session has not been as crazy as last. There weren’t any very controversial bills and that makes a difference.
- WELL, I sat on this post all day – it’s 3:17βand while my mood hasn’t exactly turned all the way around, I am feeling…better. Ash and I had lunch and I finished grading and I walked all 22 flights of my building. So now, I am at least content.
Sometimes moods just hit us out of nowhere, and all we can do is ride them out. Blame it on the carbs? π
