Monday

Don’t worry, I’m not really going to write a day-by-day account of every single work week! Just until I run out of things to say. Pretty soon my weeks will be, DAY 1: “Reviewed reports, compiled findings into memo.” DAY 2: “Reviewed reports, compiled findings into memo.” DAY 3: “Reviewed reports, compiled findings into memo, went to meeting.”

However, I’m still in the “everything’s new” stage. Good news for today: My boss approved my work schedule. I’m going to start work half-hour early so I can take an hour and a half lunch.

I’m really happy to have a long lunch, because I want to go jogging. And in the winter it is dark before and after work, and not safe to jog alone. So this way I can jog at lunchtime on the trail that’s right next to the townhome!

Also I plan to use one lunchtime per week to go grocery shopping, because I don’t have time for that kind of thing after work because of my clients. And if I grocery shop on the weekends, I’d have to haul it all up from Placitas. And the stores are a lot closer in Santa Fe than Placitas.

Meanwhile I just had a potential client on the east coast contact me. Most of my clients are in California. I do have one in Central time. The further east, the harder it is to make it work with my evening coaching schedule. I wasn’t planning on coaching at lunchtime, because if something comes up at work, it would have priority over my lunch break. But it seems like it’s not the sort of job that has lunch-hour emergencies 🙂
