I’m just having one of those days where I have no motivation to do anything meaningful at work. I have this feeling like I’m putting off working on a big project, but I don’t actually think that I have anything big and important that I’m supposed to be working on. And maybe that’s the problem. I’ve been so swamped for so long that now that I’m on the other side and can breathe a little bit, I feel lost in the world. I’m so used to being lost in a sea of tasks and projects to be prioritized and now I don’t feel like I have anything.
Don’t worry, a remedy is in sight. It’s all part of this darned job transition that I’ve been struggling with for over a year. I think I’m finally through the woods, but now the clearing isn’t quite ready for my arrival? A co-worker will be in tomorrow who is supposed to have a lot of things for me to do, so I’m hoping he pulls through for me. In the meantime, I should go back through my old lists and see what hasn’t been getting done for a long time in the wake of everything else I’ve had to do.
Or I could go home (which I did) and have a few quiet moments to myself before we have to take Phoebe to the veterinarian. No worries, it’s just her annual checkup. And some sort of shot. Which might be nice because she’ll be feeling subdued tonight, but that could also be bad because she’s been super clingy the past few nights. We’ve been trying to get her to stay off of the couch or at least away from us while we’re eating. The past two nights she’s been refusing to do so, though last night wasn’t as bad as the night before when she laid her head in my lap and just looked at me like I was such a mean mommy. Needless to say, my resolve to push her away melted. I’m such a softy. 🙂
