Today was better before this happened…to all four tires.

When I’ve had a particularly frustrating, upsetting, exhausting, or otherwise draining day, I like to open my Living Earth app and just watch the world spin. Seeing all those lights, and the clouds, and the vastness of the ocean, serves as an excellent reminder that my troubles are a speck in the grand scheme. A tragedy or joy amongst millions of other tragedies and joys. Though it sounds a little fatalistic, it always makes me feel a little less stressed, and a little more peaceful. And with that, I heave a sigh and let today go.

The cure to my less than fabulous day at work? Watching the Westminster with my favorite furry guys.

Brrrrrr
2 sheets + 1 duvet + 3 blankets + 2 fuzzy socks + 2 snuggly dogs = STILL FREEZING
I swear if I had a big foam clown nose I would totally be wearing it right now.

“If you board the wrong train, it is no use running along the corridor in the other direction.”
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
The husband is currently reading the fascinating biography of Bonhoeffer and shared this little nugget of wisdom with me the other evening. The words struck a chord with me and have been swelling in my mind ever since.
You’re on board, Tanya. Now run with the train.

This is something I needed to read today.

9AM
Oh Thursday.
I start work at seven. But lately it’s been more like 7:15ish. You might think this would not matter since I am working 10 - 12 hour days right now at an 8hr/day job, but you would be wrong. One of the owners who I report to REALLY cares that I am here promptly at 7:00 a.m., if not before. So I start every morning that I’m running late feeling like I am failing my employer - even though he is not here and has no idea I’m arriving late. (Yes, I have an overdeveloped sense of responsibility to my job.)
The big reason I’m late every day? Wardrobe choices. It probably says something about me that I choose to feel like a failure rather than look a mess. But at least I feel pretty, right?

Sad, but true.
