I had a nice long weekend thanks to a professional day, President's Day and a snow day. Now that I am back at work I am realizing just how lovely the quiet was at home. I always forget just how loud my workplace can be. I'm a middle school teacher and it doesn't get much louder than that. The noise that I'm hearing this morning is painful. My desire to curl up in a ball and cry is slightly overwhelming.
I also realize that being surrounded by light is making my brain hurt. At home I keep window blinds open so I get natural light but I don't always have electric lights on (unless I really need them). Natural light doesn't have the same negative effect on me that electric light does. I wonder if that's the same for everyone else.
The other thing that gets to me is the heat in buildings. It doesn't help that I have my own internal heating system (or my own perpetual summer). The heat in my building at work is dry and uncomfortable and I don't run it much at home so this is not fun for me. I'm sweaty and feel like I need to sleep.
OK, I'm finished with my rant. I feel kind of yucky today. I can't afford to feel yucky right now. My grandson is home and I can't wait to see him next week. I want to hold my sweet little boy. :) Love and blessings to you all.
