arthur_p_dentYou remember I was talking last week about some general sluggishness I had been dealing with? Well here I am a week later and I don't feel like I've shaken that. Hell, I had to nap twice today - not for relaxation, but because I felt like I couldn't physically do one more thing until I slept for a bit. It's contributed to a somewhat rough week.
Friday was a busy day. Work was just a half day, and I did that from home. In the afternoon I went with a friend to an indoor golf facility and spent some time on the simulator. Curling wasn't a regular week because a lot of people travel for the holiday, so it was done as a "fun night" - people could bring guests and teams were made up randomly. I ended up not playing (tiredness again) and I just hung out with a handful of others for some conversation. The night rounded out by going to play pool with some league mates and several of their friends - something different and a lot of fun.
Then came the holiday weekend. I didn't have to do dinner until Monday, so the two days prior were spent getting things in order. Dinner turned out excellent, although coordinating the cooking in two different houses simultaneously was a bit of a challenge (the in-laws don't travel easily anymore, so I go there to get the bird in the oven, and then back home to work on the rest).
Wednesday I worked much of the day (prep for inventories at the 4 US plants), and there was a bit of additional stuff I had to do this morning. In theory this week is supposed to be time off, but in this case I didn't have a choice. It's ok - I'll get that time back later on.
I've been struggling to find any relax time during this week's "time off". My intention for today was to have a lazy day at home, but that never materialized. And I still have a to-do list a mile long, so the next several days will continue to be busy. Kinda like my vacations, I'll have to go back to work in order to get some rest. XD
Stay tuned for an end of the year review, coming out this weekend. In the meantime, I hope everyone has enjoyed their holidays, and is looking forward to 2024. =]
