One of those days…

Ever had one? I’m sure you have, we all have. Well, I’ve kind of had one for about 4 days in a row now! For instance, it’s already a busy time at work… end of month always is (I’m on a deadline to close-out each month). Then one of my staff had a medical emergency this past weekend and has been out all week, and possibly next week. We just had a huge event with tons, and I do mean TONS, of gifts to process that we are still finishing up while working on another huge event that is this weekend. Tons more gifts already, and to come. Plus the saying is so true, when it rains it pours… everybody and their brother has picked this week to hand me stacks – literally – of checks from one person, or a fundraiser, etc.

So I don’t know if the stress of it all has just caught up with me, if I’m just really very tired, or what… but today I just got the “blahs”! You know, where you just can’t seem to get motivated to do anything and even when you do it still doesn’t feel like you’ve gotten much accomplished.

Anyway – I am extremely thankful for tomorrow… for it is Friday :) The day I get to wear blue jeans, no high heels, an Alabama sweatshirt ~ ~ ~ ahhh ~ ~ ~ TGIF. And I get to work extremely hard all day to meet my deadline, but I feel like the little train – I think I can, I think I can. As Sir Winston Churchill once said…

A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.

I think I will choose to be an optimist :)
