frame of mind
Current emotional disposition
A frame of mind is a temporary mental state or mood that colors how you think and feel: I'm not in the right frame of mind to make big decisions, She was in a generous frame of mind after the promotion.
The phrase emphasizes that the state is passing rather than permanent—a frame you're currently in, not a fixed disposition.
