I didn't get a ton of feedback either way, but from what I did, a few people seemed interested, so, here's a couple more days. 🙂 Thursday CATEGORYTIME SPENTACTIVITIES? Notes?Deep Work6.5Several meetings today + a good amount of head down work prepping for an upcoming quarterly meeting series.Work0.75Misc. work.Personal Care1The usual- ~15 min early (teeth/contacts/etc),… Continue reading Time tracking: Thursday and Friday
I have "tracked my time" intermittently for a couple years now, but more in the journalistic way. I have my little spreadsheet and jot things down, but I have never worried about exactness or tallying it up or anything. For some reason, maybe inspired by the recent BOBW episode and the suggestion to try time… Continue reading 2 days of time tracking results
Given our abrupt re-entry post-vacay, I was Very Happy to not have many major plans this weekend. Ethan did have an overnight tennis tournament, but we didn't go. They played Friday during the school day (why? I really don't know) and then Saturday beginning at 9 a.m. Hopefully we'll catch some other closer matches soon!… Continue reading The weekend, misc.
Storage Room: Before + After Okay, as promised, I took some pictures of my big storage room clean out! Sadly, I don't really have the best "before" pictures. Here's the thing- this storage room wasn't always a disaster. We moved into this house in 2013, and I'd say it spent the first ~6 years or… Continue reading Before/after + spontaneous fun!
Thanks for the commiseration the other day! 🙂 As is often the way, as soon as I wrote all that, I actually had a good day and felt generally more upbeat, for some reason! Maybe our warm, spring-like weather this week is helping... I sat in a patio chair for 10 minutes yesterday on my… Continue reading A few switch-ups
A big part of my job involves working on Process Improvement projects for our transplant program. There's this tool that is used in PI work called the "5 Whys" that is meant to help identify the root cause of a problem. Some of you may have heard of this! I've been meaning to share about… Continue reading Problem solving
March went so fast!! I know it's because a large chunk of the month was dedicated to preparing for travel, traveling, or resetting after travel. At first I felt like the rest of the month was kind of a wash- nothing particularly exciting stood out in my mind. Fortunately, I have my time logs/ trackers… Continue reading March 2025 Recap
January 31st! One whole month down of 2025. I mean, actually, this is pretty accurate! Haha. So far, I'm happy overall with my progress on my goals. Yes, as always happens, some of that New Year Energy started to wane a bit around the midway point. (Apparently January 10th is officially "Quitter's Day", i.e. when… Continue reading January 2025 recap
I'm sitting here on an extra DAY OFF (yes!!) feeling quite literally and figuratively frozen at the moment. I mean, it's perfectly warm in my house, thankfully, because my phone says it is -5F outside with a "feels like" temp of -12F. So it is literally freezing, but I'm actually feeling frozen in terms of… Continue reading Feeling frozen… literally and figuratively
Okay, phew! This has felt like a long series, with some looooooong posts! Finally the last section: OTHER. And, this should be relatively quick, because I only have 3 here so far. These are goals slots #21-25 on my 25 for 2025 list, but I've left 2 blank for now to fill in any fun,… Continue reading 2025 Goals: Other
