This week has been extremely busy, but in a good way. I never even had the chance to start a blog post yesterday, so I hope that I can at least make this one somewhat interesting by the end of the day.

Things at work should quiet down considerably. The tsunami of meetings is over with for a while, and I can finally get back to taking care of my own job at last. By the end of this workday, I will be really looking forward to the weekend and some much-needed down time.

The morning has consisted of making sure that my presentation is ready to go, and then making sure that the slides are sent to the right people in advance. I will be glad to get the presentation taken care of today. I slept well last night, but I don’t feel 100% this morning. I hope that the day will take a turn for the much slower after my presentation.

There is a retirement ceremony today for one of the client’s senior members that I cannot attend dye to my schedule. His lunch and ceremony will take place while I am giving my presentation. I hope that it all goes well. I took the time to have lunch with him recently since I cannot attend the ceremony, and I know that he appreciated it. This gets me off the hook for being a “team player”.

I completed my presentation and I am now preparing for lunch as the afternoon approaches. There are more meetings to dial into while I continue to get my normal work done here during the afternoon, but I should be left alone for the most part.

My prediction has come true. I have had a quiet afternoon and am caught up with things here at work. Now I want to quietly morph into the evening without interruption.

Now that work is over with, and I am settling down for the night, I can think about whether or not to cook the steaks that I began marinating or waiting to cook them tomorrow. Right now, tomorrow is looking like the winner. I want to relax this evening. We have food here for tonight so that is no problem at all. Hal (person) has really gotten into the VR thing with his Samsung phone. I don’t really think it is that interesting, but that is my own opinion. Right now Hal (person) is talking to people there and I am writing and unwinding for the night. I will take another walk or two this evening to get my 16,000 steps in before it gets too late around here. This will be a more pleasant after the trees finish with their damned pollination process for the Spring because my allergies are really bugging me right now.
