hello
From today. Denim Boyshirt. I’m around. I’m busy. Work mostly. I get home and I just want to chill. But there’s a holiday next week I’m hoping (planning?) to get recharged then. I’m taking a day off the week after too. Need a break My glasses? I don’t think I ever posted them on my blog; only on instagram. I scratched my eye in my sleep last night So wearing contacts would have been too uncomfortable today.

I’m rambling because I’ve been on a sugar-high since receiving all those Country Ma’am.

I thought I’d post a few photos from when I visited Yokohama. It was a really cold rainy day. Also I met up with some friends I hadn’t seen in about a year, so most my photos are of all of us. So here are a few in between I wanted to post

What I wore to work -
Uniqlo light cotton blazer + Madewell silk blouse + Kastane skirt

I thought I’d share an excerpt from a book I like to flip through when I feel it particularly hard to not leave work “at work.”

A basic living-in-the-moment reminder that I think easily pertains to every day life, not just work-related situations.

Richard Carlson, PH.D.
Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff at Work

“When you have a thought, that’s all it is - a thought. Thoughts certainly don’t have the power or authority to stress you out without your conscious or unconscious consent. Thoughts are just images and ideas in our mind. They are like dreams - only you’re awake while you’re having them. But with waking thoughts, you get to decide how seriously you are going to take them.

For example, you might have a series of thoughts while driving to work:
“Oh gosh, today is going to be really horrible. I’ve got six meetings and must finish those two reports by noon. I dread seeing Jane. I just know she’s still going to be angry about the disagreement we had yesterday.”

At this point, essentially only one of two things can happen. You will either take the thoughts seriously, start feeling worried, think about them some more, analyze how difficult your life has become, feel sorry for yourself, and so forth. Or if you recognize what has just happened, if you are consciously aware that you’ve just had a mini “thought attack,” you can simply remind yourself that all that has occurred is yet another series of thoughts have traveled through your mind. You’re not even at work yet - you’re still driving the car!

This doesn’t mean that your day is going to be trouble-free or that you’re pretending all is well and good. But think of how illogical it is to be having a bad day at work before your day officially begins. It’s ludicrous - but that’s precisely what most of us do all day long. We have thought after thought after thought. Yet we forget that it’s just thought. We treat it as though it’s reality.”
