Today I actually left the house twice- I went to pick up groceries and then went out again later in search of new gloves and to exchange the shampoo I bought at Whole Foods (I have no idea what was in it, but it made me itchy before I even got out of the shower, so clearly, something in there was no good). It's cold again today- went from 60 F to 25 F in less than 24 hours- so all of this was with a headache and vaguely irritable/unwell feeling.
I also unsubscribed to the email job alerts I had set up because they were just overwhelming me. There were too many emails. So it may mean sifting through the job sites more, but that's more manageable than general panic when I look at my inbox.
So, one week down. I'm doing okay. Starting to get slightly bored, which was part of the point of this week, since it will be easier to be productive next week if I got the decompressing out of my system before then. Jumping right into productivity would have been setting myself up to fail, because I would have just gotten all defiant about it. Because I'm apparently really 8 years old.
