Nothing feels better than finishing a consulting project. The stress, anxiety, guilt, doubt, nervousness, all washed away, and the feeling of relief floods in. It's always a time for me to celebrate a little bit: buy a slightly more expensive bottle of wine, splurge on some fresh seafood for dinner, maybe order a little something on line (I have a bad Amazon habit). I deserve it! I worked hard! It's done!
Of course, it's never really done. I usually walk away with some more work to do, a little more polishing, a bit more analysis, just one more draft. Very annoying.
But this time, I walked away clean. They seemed to like the work. And I got another potential assignment from it. Sweet.
Excuse me while I go open a bottle and steam some mussels and clams for dinner.
