My mind

Lots happening in my world right now and that means that my mind is in overdrive. Here's a sample...

• My daughter is about to embark on the countdown to VCE exams
• The process of declaring excess staff has started for my work team
• I have two final assignments to complete, each with time frames
• My granddaughter is unwell
• I am contemplating how we celebrate Christmas
• I am working through a process of healing
• I'm embarking on gaining better health through dietary changes

So the reality of this is that I didn't sleep well last night. Each time I fell asleep, I would wake up again within the hour, and then take a while to fall asleep again. This went on to about 1am. Therefore by 8am, before my day had really got started, I already felt emotionally and mentally drained.

Thankfully I had a proffessional development day to attend, and therefore not too taxing. The day was actually quite pleasant with a catch up with a friend and a great venue with good hospitality. So good in fact, that I ended staying until 6pm, enjoying a wine and chat with my friend. Though the heavy mind returned as I left the venue and began thinking again of all that's happening.

A break through though was made with my current assignment, as I discovered, that many of the required responses are in fact within our manual, and don't need to be deciphered from the given text, which I am still reading. Such a relief. So now maybe my reoccurent dream of an unfinished assignment will cease!
