yesterday's physical/emotional health foo 

I'm basically a glorified garage attendant, so when I'm not the janitor or the meter maid I'm in a tiny office in the garage, being customer service and accounting.

There's enough space for a small AC, but with the AC taking up the vent, the place gets really stuffy and hot - running the AC unit as a fan only and leaving the door wide open really works for temperature and air circulation in weather as hot as we had earlier this week.

The property managers own the garage, and contract us to run it, so they schedule repairs and don't necessarily tell us about them. Recent construction work (removing then replacing foam insulation between concrete floor slabs) has been near where I am for a couple of weeks now, so I didn't think anything was up, but I think they really intensified it the last two days, and this past week they've also had people pressure washing the walls and different people painting walls and different people vacuuming out parts of the basement levels.

Wednesday I felt sort of depressed and congested while I was there. Yesterday my mood REALLY spiraled badly, and my first clue something physical might be getting to me was the basement levels were hazy and got gunk all over my glasses when I went to clean/empty trash there. I was able to close the door for the first time really due to weather, and got slammed by physical fatigue and congestion. I set up taking today off, showered and put literally everything in the laundry.

@Leucrotta Yikes! Gotta be massive dust at least if not something more. o.o
