I haven't posted anything to this blog for quite a while ...and feel guilty even throwing up a comment now. How can time pass so quickly? There just is NEVER enough time to do all the things we want or need to do. Does anyone have any great ideas on how to manage time better? I could really use some good suggestions.
I really enjoyed taking time off when Mom was here - and would have liked to take even more - but the downside is that there is no one at work to pick up the slack when I am off - a real quandry when there are no other employees and not even the possibility of student help. Therefore, the daily work just accumulates and I end up working EXTRA to make up for being off. Kind of defeats the purpose of days off in my mind.
Big sigh!

If only we could only be the type of people who COULD just leave work after 8 hours and not feel guilty, regardless of what is left to do or what is past deadline or how it will make the boss/company look!! I feel like that's probably a more healthy way to live...but by the time I realized that, I was already past the point of changing how I felt about that dang sense of responsibility/obligation. So I hear ya (even though I'm currently not living that particular nightmare).
Wish I could say something to make you feel better, but all I got today is a jolly "hang in there" and a promise that I'll treat to ice cream (or some other guilty pleasure) the next time I see you. Ice cream makes everything better. :)
PS -- Have you asked You-Know-Who to write out a description of your current job??? ;)
No - but that is a good idea. It is 6 pm and I am going to get out of here - so probably not until next week - but good reminder!
