Blessed.

I have had a h.o.r.r.i.b.l.e. day. I have a hard time not taking criticism personally, particularly when that criticism is saying essentially, you're just not working hard enough. While I wallowed in my self pity, I was reminded that I am surrounded by people who think otherwise and for them I am thankful. I have a wonderful boss and co-workers. They reassured me that I was doing well, or at least the best that I can. I have an excellent husband who has *no clue* what I do or why I get frustrated, but tries his best to listen and understand. When that fails, he brings me sweet tea from chick fil a to brighten up my day. My mom stays on the phone while I vent and, luckily, she knows what I'm talking about and can commiserate.
All in all, I ended up having a pretty swell day. I think the Opster and I are going to curl up to a good book and go to sleep.
