Yesterday was rough. I have been feeling much better today.

A brief summary of why yesterday was rough:

1. We just had a couple kids come back to Unicorns from two weeks off the farm. One of them is not fully adjusted to being back, and we had a hard time.
2. We had a Unicorns meeting during lunch yesterday during which we talked about how things have been going. It was our first meeting, so of course there were a lot of things to be said. I discovered that I have a lot to do. I was also reminded of a mild power struggle, which is rather unfortunate.
3. I was looking forward to scrubbing away my frustration during my kettle clean shift, but the kettle was being used to make tempeh. This seriously delayed my work, put extra people/things in the way, etc.
4. That's OK, I thought, my desk shift should be pretty calm, and I can take a minute to breathe. Nope! Turns out that we just got the internet back, so there were lots of things to process, and the deskie before me had prioritized other tasks.

I was on the verge of tears from about 1:00 PM until bedtime.

One of the best things about sleeping is that it totally hits my reset button. I feel great today. I put on nice things, I danced around in the hammock shop, I smiled a lot. I'm looking forward to the events of my day. I feel up to the tasks I set for myself yesterday during the Unicorns meeting. Things are going to be just fine.

Also, I am so happy to have people in my life who care for me when I'm not feeling my best. I felt very supported yesterday evening. It was lovely.
