Window Burn

We had a friend over last night for dinner and a visit, and she asked me how I was doing. I had to pause for a few minutes to think how to answer that. If she’d asked about my son or wife, I would have had a ready answer, but it suddenly occurred to me that I didn’t have an answer about myself. I don’t spend enough time doing a self-evaluation to really know how I’m doing.

On the one hand, that leads me to conclude that I’m definitely not a selfish person. On the other hand, it also probably means I need a little more self care. Although, I guess on the third hand, it could also mean I just lead a boring life!

Ultimately, all I could think to tell her was that I had a sunburn that I had to deal with. To which she legitimately asked how I got a sunburn if I worked from home and never left the house. All I had for that was that we had windows in the house, so it’s possible to get a “window burn.”
