i've had a low grade fever since saturday and today the back of my throat is trying to develop scratchiness. stress.
clients making me crazy...a no-show on the weekend...another showing up an hour early this morning only to annoy the hell out of me with game-playing as a distraction from lazy behavior and important topics he doesn't want to discuss...
until, a brief phone conversation with one who, well, i've ignored during my audit/grant writing mudhole of events the past two weeks...yet accepts my apology and direction willingly and happily--i heard it in her voice. i provided information and a few words of encouragement for an upcoming employment test. she feels confident that she has the knowledge to pass it now -- she's always had the skills to pass it. i guess we all benefit from someone reminding us of what we know yet disregard or forget or misplace. she was like fresh air wafting in just in time to dispel my feverish, self-absorbed, temper tantrum.
