Readers of this blog should know….

…. that the last month has been unbelievably difficult, and (for this first time in this round of bargaining) I cried at the end of the day today even though I am staying in a really nice hotel room. However, I only have two meetings left and then I am finished with this business. And I am very grateful to be returning to my awesome partner later this week because he will kiss me and make it all better.

Why am I telling you this? Who knows, except that I’m feeling sorry for myself even though I know I made my own choices here. I need to be reminded to stop being useful. I need to be reminded to stop trying so hard.
