I was feeling drained and demotivated in the early afternoon today, and a good friend called. We talked on the phone for about an hour about a problem he was having, and I got off the phone - and felt fully recharged!

Was a bit surprised, because I really don't like talking on the phone these days - and definitely didn't expect to recharge while on the phone! I think maybe I just don't talk to many people as a WAH parent, and so it was nice to talk to someone for a bit. Gonna work to integrate that more into my day!
