Today I found myself sat at my desk in THQ (The SA’s headquarters, affectionately referred to as the Mother Ship). I spun around on my chair a few times and found myself thinking how much I enjoyed being there and how much I am looking forward to the weeks ahead.
I spent a good half hour clearing junk from random corners of my desk. I’m really good at keeping stuff, thinking ‘I’ll need that again’, and then it just sits in a dusty desk tray for weeks and weeks. Today I shredded loads of that sort of thing. I couldn’t bear to throw away the odd Bible verses scribbled on post-it notes that had obviously jumped out to me one day or the other, so I stuck those in my journal.
I spent another good while catching up with some of the lovely people who work on my floor. We’re a bit of a motley crew, but there is genuine affection there, and today it felt good just to be chatting over steaming cups of coffee.
A good Monday all round!
