Describing this week as frustrating would not do the past few days justice. It has been a long time since I have felt this frazzled and stressed because of work issues. It feels like I say "This is a hill I will die on" a lot more than the average person, but I do not take the sentiment lightly.
I cannot stand seeing abuses of power within systems. As much as I try to keep her tempered, my inner advocate always comes to the table. If you know me personally or have been reading this blog for any amount of time, you already know that staying silent is not one of my strengths.
So yesterday, after much internal angst, I spoke up. I don't regret it at all although I am a tad weary about the ramifications. We will see how it all shakes out, but please send me some positive energy today.
This weekend I'm going to try to put work issues to the side and focus on Christmas. I am going to bake cookies and start to infuse more holiday spirit into our lives. I think we could all use a little sugar and glitter about now.
