It has been a stressful week for me at work. Things have been crazy! I knew it was bad this morning when I was driving to work and realized I was gripping the wheel so hard my hands were turning white. Not a good thing. Well, the morning didn’t improve. When crazy thing after another. Come lunch time I decided I needed to go pick something up and then rush back so I could eat at my desk and get more work done.
The day turned out to be too beautiful to ignore. On my way back to work I decided that I could take 20 minutes to enjoy the sun and breeze. So I pulled into a parking lot, rolled down all the windows and sun roof, threw on some music, and enjoy my food under the beautiful blue sky. It is amazing what a difference that made in my attitude and stress levels. I’ll have to remember it.
When of the songs that came on was perfect for the situation. It is Sunlight by DJ Sammy. Most of you have probably heard it. If you haven’t, it is just a good pop/dance song. Great for enjoying the sunny weather.
That’s why sometimes I go geocaching at lunch
You just have to take time for yourself sometimes.
