Sometimes on really bad days, the only thing that gets me through them is to make a list of good things. Even if there's only one thing, and even if it's only "my tea today was really good", it helps to use that as a starting point to focus. It just ...helps, y'know?
Today has been and will be a pretty decent day, in the fact that I don't have to work so it will be fairly relaxed. Even my work days are generally stress-free but you know what I mean. So I thought: you know, if I find a couple of good things when my days are *good* then it will help balance out even further on the days that are *not* good! Woot. :)
Anyway.
Today's Happy Thoughts are:
:) Free flowers! The bonus of working at a special events place is that there are always items left behind... like flowers. So if I happen to find a random bouquet of flowers after everything has been cleaned up, why throw them out? I can put them in water here at home or the office and they're pretty for at least a few days.
:) Having Mondays off is AWWWWESOMMMMME.
:) The only problem with classical music is that the volume tends to go way down... and then WAY up. The good thing about listening to it at home on your days off is that you can have volume way up to match, and then it just doesn't matter.
And Now, Brak Presents...
Holiday Bead FunTime!
