Getting away from the madness

It was incredibly stressful leaving on Thursday as I was absolutely swamped given all the news and happenings of the week. I had even thought about canceling last minute so I could focus on work.

I’m glad I didn’t. It didn’t take me long on Thursday to realize just how much the last few weeks have taken out of me. I felt my anxiety and tension the entire flight and it didn’t really subside until my friends and I met up and started our night. There was an immediate sense of relief as my friends and I hung out at dinner and talked about anything but work.

With a lot of the happenings in our world, it was amazing to just get away from everything for a little bit. Sometimes you just need to escape the craziness of your current world and I’m in a much better headspace after a 3 day break.
