Hi All,
Today has been what I can only describe as one of THOSE days. One of those days that make you truly appreciate all of the other days that surround them. One of those days that test your mettle and at times your vocabulary.
Things did not start off well... I overslept, which got me started on the wrong foot. Then, I took the second half of a class on time management. You know you really need time management when you actually have to take the time managemet class twice because you didn't have time to finish the assignments the first time 'round.
So, this time I decided that I was going to get the most out of the experience. I went into the class with the best of intentions. Unfortunately, I also went into the class without my goals sheet filled out... again. Ahh, well the third times the charm, right?
Then I discovered that by taking, or to be more accurate, re-taking the time management class, I was now going to be late for my coaching appointment with my mentor. When I got into her office, let me see if you can guess what she wanted to discuss... my time management goals and how I was doing on achieving them. Some days you just can't win for losing, you know what I mean?
Various and sundry irksome little aggravations occurred, but nothing that was worth writing home, or even AR about.
My day continued on it's merry "one of THOSE days" way and it rose to a crescendo when I decided, silly but optimistic girl that I am, to pull some forms off of WIN Forms online. Boy, that was fun. I got to practice my cover sheet filling out skills not once, not twice, but three full times before I finally accepted that clearly the fates had decided this was not what I should be doing today and I finally took the hint.
See, a brick wall doesn't have to fall on my head for me to get the idea that perhaps I need to move to another activity. Oh, I may wind up doing the very same thing over and over and over again, each time expecting a different result, but everyone does that, right?
Then I finally dragged my sorry carcass home and collapsed on the couch. I popped open a tall, cold diet Dr. Pepper, kicked off my shoes, took off my name-tag and reflected on my day. It was not a bad day, it was not a good day, it was simply one of those days. But it was one of those days that I am extremely grateful for, since it means that tomorrow is already looking up!
Take care, help lots of people and have a wonderful day!
Tisza
