Kinda neat, kinda sad
This morning I opened my word program like I do just about every other morning and hovered the mouse over the folder I needed to open. It went directly to the ms I’d been working on for months. The one that is done.
A moment of sadness, like saying goodbye to a friend washed over me. Not a forever goodbye, but a for awhile goodbye. I then smiled because if you’d heard the loud growl of frustration emitted the last few days when that exact same move had been executed and that folder had to be opened, you’d probably wonder why I’d now be sad I didn’t have to open that old story anymore.
It was one of those kinda neat, kinda sad moments.
