Today Rani told me about an activity she does at her mentoring program called, Rose and Thorn. You list the best thing and the worst thing that happened to you all week. I'm going to try this, but condense it down to just today, because my brain is a little shot and I can't think back that far.
Today I spent nearly every waking hour typing data in an Excel spreadsheet and then transferring it over to a Word document into sentence form. I'm only awake right now because I just finished for the night. Oh, I guess except for the hours I spent in meetings today.
That was the thorn.
The rose is that I had some awesome guacamole with the freshest chips at lunch AND I got an awesome e-mail from a very old friend. We've been friends for 19 years. We'll have to celebrate our 20th anniversary some how :-)
Now I'm going to go to bed so I can get up in the morning and go back to entering data in spreadsheets and transferring it back to documents. This will last until next Tuesday, except for when I take a break to go a funeral. I'm crossing my fingers that I can hold onto my sanity.
P.S. you should try the rose and thorn thing too.
