not enough hours... not enough!
wow - so the reward i get for taking a week and running around the country visiting family is
*drumroll*
exhaustion AND piles of work! YAYAYAAAAAA!
ok i am just feeling a teensy bit overwhelmed. this means i am now procrastinating by hanging out in my 'safe place' (WIM) and taking comfort in everyone here... but i see the pile of work growing and even as the words 'sure, i can do that' come out of my mouth i am screaming 'ARE YOU NUTS?! WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO DO THIS!!??" in my head.
so i am creating an entire presentation this afternoon, from scratch, that will be submitted for 'feedback' (i.e. ripping apart, but i dont mind, makes for a better end product!) and then reworked tomorrow and then submitted again/reworked/etc. until finally submitted to sr. mgmt for approval on friday and we meet with the audience on monday morning at 9:30am.
this on top of all the stuff thats been hanging over my head anyway. ok really now that i am writing about it it doesnt feel all that scary. and i like doing powerpoint. really! does that make me crazy? i think it's kinda fun.
ok i feel better now! who says procrastination isnt productive?! :)
*p.s. please excuse typos/misspellings as i am too lazy to check!!!

I catch myself doing that 'sure, I'll do that' a good bit too and get overwhelmed at times but I try to alternate larger projects then a smaller one so I can stay motivated. Often times I switch back and forth until both are done at once and then move on to a few new ones.
