I have the power to create what I need.  I was at work this morning and I was annoyed.  I've had a low grade headache for a month that has been draining on me, and this morning the extra noise from the TV that my officemate "needs to have on for noise" was grating on me.  I could tell I was going downhill with my attitude and my anger was starting to come out sideways.  I had a conference call first thing in the morning and I'm a visual person, I have a hard time paying attention to audio only and I was fading in and out of the conference call.  I was just not feeling well or able to concentrate and I know I need more concentration than normal on a conference call.  So that added to the TV being on causing distraction for me, and a busy day planned, I was ready to scream and throw things.  I didn't.  I ended up taking my laptop and working at the library, the quiet, almost silent library.  I am so grateful to have the freedom to be able to go to a quiet place when I need that extra quietness to think straight and focus.  I have been more productive in an hour at the library than I would have been at my office.  I need to remember to find the place for me that I need to work.  Love and Light.
