I needed to work from home today, in order to be on hand for a delivery. It wasn't a particularly good day to be physically out of the office; there's a ton of stuff going on. But it's not like any other day this week would have been any better for me to be working from home, and the delivery needed to be made, so I stayed home. Delivery happened.
And I'm in an amazingly good mood. I've been in a great mood all day.
I knew at some level that work has been very busy and really stressful for about the past month. But I hadn't realized just how stressed out I was getting until a day away from the place has had me grinning like a loon.
Oh, dear.
Granted, it's been a gorgeous day outside, which is probably aiding and abetting my mood, and there's an extra-long weekend coming, and I have a dear friend arriving any day now, and we finally have this delivery. All good things, and yes, these probably help.
But I really do think it's being away from work that is the base of my buoyant mood.
And that kind of scares me.
Definitely food for thought...
