Quoting Jeannine: To feel comfortable in one's own skin is a truly wonderful thing, and to have achieved that, even if just for a day, is still an accomplishment of significant proportions.
Yes, you are right!! It was such an amazing feeling after so many months of feeling like, well, crap I don't expect it to be smooth sailing from now on in terms of my PMA but I hope to remind myself that it IS possible for me to feel good next time I feel low.
It would be nice to store away the "recipe" for future reference, too... it definitely seemed to be a mixture of feeling good about work and myself coupled with h's positive reaction on top!
