one of those days



I'm having one of those days...you know...where one thing piles onto another...lol

I started the day off with a migraine, which doesn't help. I felt better by early afternoon and came to work. But I know I'm not working at full capacity and I am telling myself to be easy on myself. Telling and believing are two different things.

I've had a pain in two fingers on my right hand that travels up my hand whenever I try to type, run my hands underwater...basically, when I touch them to anything. I thought it was because my office is over air conditioned. So I am wearing gloves and doing some two fingered typing, but it isn't any better today. So, I called my dr to see what to do.

Then my boss sent me an email, with five people cc'd on it. I misread it and therefore also misreplied. Further misreplied by replying to everyone instead of just him, and he's really the only person that needed the information. So then I had to back up and reply again and correct it, to everyone. Not a big deal but I felt like smacking myself and telling myself to slow down and take the time to read it correctly in the first place.

...which leads to me sitting here at my desk, feeling sorry for myself, a lot to do and my silly typing isn't getting it done, headache mostly subsided but feeling tired out, perfectionism kicking in with that dumb email that doesn't amount to a hill of beans anyway...

HP is acting in all of this, I know. Slow down is the message. On an up note, my hsuband and I were trying to change our travel plans for this winter. It seemed like nothing was working out, so we decided to change our travel dates. Good thing we did, because in the process I found an error in our original reservation that had us flying to two different destinations on two different dates. Haha, wouldn't have been much of a vacation if that had happened, would it?

Things happen for a reason. I just need a little patience. So I'm going on a coffee break to go see if I can take it easy for a little bit and find some. -Hope.

Don't be so hard on yourself.  I don't get migraines but from how they are described to me they must be incredibly hard to concentrate with.  ((((Hopefortoday))))


I agree that your HP seems to be telling you to slow it down.  Sounds like one of those, 'one hour' or 'one minute' at a time days. 


Heres to a better one today !
