I can’t believe it’s been two weeks since I updated my blog. I’m not dead. I’m pretty busy, but I’m not dead and neither is this blog. I recently twittered, tweeted(?) that I had taken on a couple projects at work and I did and the first was super busy and fun and the second I was considering backing out of because I’m the only one that’s excited about it. Then I decided that was stupid. That’s exactly the project I should be doing!
So, I started writing a bunch of training material for employees. Once upon a time when I was a store manager, (this is 1998-1999 time here) I wrote a manager manual that we still use today. I think it was my writing the Manager Manual that got me my job as Supervisor.
So, my work time is still very busy with work related stuff and my free time is now filling up with more work related stuff that I volunteered to do lol. I really should have thought it through better. The part where I take on a couple projects and then my boss decides to throw more balls at me to juggle makes me want to scream. He KNOWS I took on more work so he decides now’s the time for HIM to take on more work which means he delegates down, only the work I took on I can’t delegate down. And the work he’s delegating down to me I can’t delegate all of it down. I’ve got a real time management issue going on here. So what suffers is my personal stuff, and my blog. Heck, facebook is practically off the scale any more. I’m almost never on there any more, and it’s not just the privacy thing, which is part of it too. My yard needs mowing too, exhibit A, I could write MOW ME in the clover it’d gotten so out of hand.
Anyway. Not dead. Super busy. Mostly happy. Still making time to read, just re-read Dan Millman’s Way of the Peaceful Warrior. I really like that book.
