Mostly

Yesterday got away from me without a chance to post my weekly bread. Intraoffice and interdepartmental politics (two of my least favorite things) have consumed too much of my time already this week. Here are my mostly positive reflections for the past week and today.

When was I most free last week?

After submitting a report to my boss on Friday evening (after COB but technically done on Friday), it left me free to enjoy the weekend. (Actually I used a fair portion of the weekend to catch-up on non-work things.)

When in the past week did I feel least myself?
Somehow I have gotten into a sort of nocturnal routine. I like having the office to myself in the evenings; I feel more productive. But I am a morning person. It feels odd to get up hours after the sun.

For what am I most grateful today?
I received a travel award to attend a meeting later this summer.


When did I feel most connected today?
I had an hour and a half of down time while at work this evening. DT came over and we went for a walk in the park (despite the excessive heat warning). Sunset was lovely.

When did I give and receive the most love?
I cuddled and played with Tugger before leaving for work this morning.


When did I have the least sense of belonging?
I have been wrestling with an ethical dilemma at work. Yesterday I was convinced that I am obliged to report it, so I made an appointment to discuss it with the powers-that-be tomorrow afternoon. They'll decide whether the allegation needs to be pursued. (I know that it's the right thing to do, but it's really difficult.)
