Totally weird day! I got everything done that I didn’t have on my ‘immediate’ list. Sometimes your day is guided by events. Today was that day! Very busy, yet not a ‘focused-productive’ day like I was hoping for!
This morning I was doing my best to get comfortable. My low back was killing me. Every which way I turned, I was in serious pain!! It was awful. When I got up, I realized that the very hard seat I have been using at my desk is literally ruining my back. I had to go out and get a new one before I could even think about sitting at my desk.
My daughter stayed home sick for the 6th day in a row. Her fever was broke, but she wasn’t going anywhere! I totally forgot to call her in sick. Yikes. Hopefully the truant officer doesn’t come to get us!
I had to do my morning reading group at school first. After that I looked for a chair. It amazes me that an office supply store doesn’t have more than one choice for what I need! I called number of stores with very little luck. Finally I found one. On my way to the store, I returned a call that took about 40 minutes. As I hate when people are on their phone in stores, I sat in my car until the conversation was done.
It took me minutes to get my chair and come home. But once home I had to put the darned thing together. After that, I realized it was early day out and I had to color my hair before my other daughter got home, so I scurried to get that done. Once my other daughter got home we were off to dance. I had to run home after I dropped her off and came back to grab her.
For my husbands birthday I did my best to tidy the house with the girls. As soon as he got home, we were going to head to dinner, but I had to get my Newspaper props from Office Max, so I ran there and grabbed them, then came home and picked up the family. We went to dinner and had a nice time. After we came home I got changed and went to Hip Hop class. And now I am home.
So as you can see, not a minute to spare in the day. I have seen my husband on his birthday for all of 1 hour and he is likely asleep upstairs as I type. I’m exhausted.
I find many of my days go like this.
As a result, I barely got to sit in my new chair, but it was long enough to realize that it was a good purchase. Hopefully tonight’s sleep will be better than last night!
Never take ergonomics for granted!
Happy Wednesday
Mom of two grown ass girls and married to a short guy who is funny and cooks really well! I’m a photographer by trade, so you can say I’m a bit “peopley”. My favorite sessions are the one on ones where I just get to chat and find out about my clients. I’m blessed with what I get to do every day! Blessed by the support of my husband and kids, and blessed by the ongoing support and encouragement of my friends who are always lifting me up.
