8/8/2012: A Happy Hump Day (Hopefully)

Wednesday, August 08, 2012

I'm counting down until it's Friday. Today is the middle of the week otherwise known as hump day. I'm glad it's getting closer. I'm looking forward to the weekend. I'm hoping today is a happy hump day for me. I have two meetings at inopportune times and I'm still covering for people on vacation. I'm behind on my own job duties. It's quite frustrating.

Yesterday was a rough day. I found out who is getting laid off. It makes me quite sad that my company is laying off people here and moving the work to India because it's cheaper. It's a very difficult time at work. The morale is very low. I honestly don't know anyone who actually likes their job where I work.

I was exhausted by the time work was over and I had a headache. I was pulled into about twenty different directions. My brain felt scrambled by the time the day was over. I did get to go walking during lunch. It was nice to get outside.

I'm feeling tired and frazzled. I slept like a log but I know I'm behind with my sleep. I'm trying not to drag through the day and that's not easy at all. I'm trying my best to be positive but it isn't easy right now.

The temperature is cooler outside and I want to take advantage of that. I'm feeling extremely excited about that. I love walking and I'm hoping I get to walk for 2.5 hours total today. I also want to do a 15 minute cardio workout once I get home.

I have my foods ready for the day. I'm doing my best to prepare myself for this busy day at work. I know I can get through this rough period.

    Hang in there - you have the right attitude! Every post I have read from you, whether you realize it or not, has been inspiring and positive - yes, even when you are exhausted. You have your food ready to go, and even after a long, tough day at work, you are still looking forward to cardio. You're always doing the right thing. I admire that.

You have all types of karma points coming your way. You've earned them, so don't be surprised when they come to you - which is hopefully soon! I hope you have an excellent end to your week and a well-deserved weekend!
