This week started out with so much promise that it was difficult to consider the fact that all good things come to an end. What goes up must come down, and please believe that everything went down a little too fast for my liking. Tuesday was fairly terrible. On the bright side — and because I am relentlessly positive, I do believe there is a bright side — what comes down must also go back up again, and things are slowly making progress toward the positive side of things again.
My job is wonderful. It’s both incredibly gratifying — Yay! Kids are considering all of their options for college! Hooray for higher education! — and ridiculously exhausting. This week weighed in much more heavily on the exhausting side. I am completely and totally worn out from everything that has happened, and I am in major need of a day off, plenty of sleep, a s’more (yep), and a glass of wine. Classy, I know.
Anyway, like I said before, things are getting much better, so that means that by this time next week, I’ll certainly be back to thinking my job is completely gratifying and only slightly exhausting. If all else fails, I have all day on Saturday to do nothing but sleep. And that’s definitely something worthwhile to look forward to, right?
