A Little Niche of Significance

My thighs are so sore. All evening I've been trying to figure out why my butt and hips are feeling so hurty (like I worked out), when I've done no such thing! Then I remembered; I wore a short-ish dress yesterday, and had to bend at the knees like a lady all day. By the end of the day I was struggling to pull myself back up, but it still didn't immediately click as to why my lower body is sore. Now I realize... ouch.

I got some flattering news at work today. I'll be going to the Tacoma store to facilitate their Bra Certification class next week. It's pretty cool that my district manager, and the managers of other stores think highly enough of me to want me to come teach their associates. It means a lot to me. I don't do what I do for the praise of others. I do it for myself and the way I feel about my performance at the end of the day. The recognition is a little embarrassing for me, but I'm also proud of what I've managed to carve out for myself. A little niche of significance. I fully plan on being even more prepared than I usually am. which is saying a lot, because last class I totally forgot I was even happening. And that Laura was coming. Oops!

The stupid power went out again today. It's been a constant battle the past month. I feel like it's gone out more in the past month than it has in all 3 years combined that we've lived in this house. I don't know what's going on around here, but PSE needs to get their shit together. I left work wanting a hot meal and possibly a bath, but instead I went on an impromptu shopping trip (where I didn't really buy anything, other than a pair of boots on sale). Snookums suggested it's because this past summer was so dry, and now the soil has become water-logged. Tree roots are just giving up.

I feel so uncomfortable right now. It's annoying! I'm physically tired, sore, feeling bloated, itchy, sleepy, cranky, distracted. I'm like the worst 7 dwarves combined. I just need to go to sleep, I think.
