I'm really tired today. I wish I had the option of grabbing another 1-2 hours of sleep, but that's not going to happen. Unfortunately. I was up as usual, did my morning meditation, hit the treadmill for a rather poor showing of only 1-1/2 miles instead of my more usual 2, showered, washed and ate my breakfast (fruit), and settled down at my keyboard to catch up with emails, customer queries and my daily blog. I have no good reason to be "blah" or "run down" today. I'm feeling much better, I'm at a really great weight, I'm eating properly, I'm getting my six hours of sleep every night. I'm going to blame it on the temperature. We're colder now. It's Autumn, and my body wants to hibernate. Unfortunately, life goes on in the "Frozen Northlands", and whether I'm warm or cold, I still have to be functional.

No real reason to be feeling "Blah", but I am, anyway. Maybe it's Fall getting me down, or maybe I'm just cold, but I'm unenthusiastic about today in general. Sorry, Tuesday. |
I'm going to try to talk to Chickie today about her taking a few more days off. She's got a week off scheduled for mid-October, but I'd like her to sprinkle a few more single days off in there as well. She's due some more time off (we don't allow time off during November-December - just too much that needs to be done at that time of the year). I might be able to pull a single day off in November for her, but really, I need the majority of her vacation days to be from now through Halloween.

I love Halloween, it's one of my favorite holidays. Maybe if I just look ahead and see it beckoning me onward, I'll be more enthused about going to work today - LOL. |
I may be tired, but at least I'm feeling much better. I finish my antibiotic regime on Thursday morning, and the antibiotic ointment can continue on my body past then, but Thursday is the final day I'm allowed to put the ointment on my head. I'm looking and feeling like a human being again, though, and I'm very grateful for modern science - LOL. I received a long, two-page questionnaire from the Allergist in yesterday's mail, so I'll try to get started filling that out today. It's a good thing I don't take medications. I have to list all of them, and for someone else, that could be a real time consuming project, right there. I do use a few supplements, but those are easy to list out.

I need to settle on the size paper I need to order and get that going ASAP (along with envelopes). I know the image(s) I want to use on this year's card, but assembly will be required and that always takes time. I'm going to leave things minimal in the detail work, but there are some things I have to make decisions on RIGHT NOW and doing a couple of quick tests will save me heartache in crunch time. |
I need to put together a mock-up of the paper size I'm thinking about ordering for my holiday cards. I need to know how much I need to order and exactly what I'm going to do with it, but I can do that. I also need to get some smaller pieces of artwork into the shrink-wrap, slap some price tags onto them, and get them out onto the sales floor. I really need to move ahead with my cards, though. I'm going to be super time crunched on them as it is. Cards might be late this year, so I'm apologizing in advance.

I don't have a "true" Denver Broncos hoodie, but all of my hoodies are Broncos oriented. It occurs to me that I don't have a zip-up style of Broncos hoodie. I'll have to look into that after this season. So far, my team is playing VERY well! |
So, I'm off to start my day. I think I'll pull on a hoodie. Maybe getting a bit warmer will help me get into the rhythm of the day. I know I need to load a new book onto my iPod - I listen to books when I run, and today's selection just didn't cut it for me. I think I'll download the first of the Amelia Peabody books by Elizabeth Peters. I own the full series on Audible (and most of the paperbacks as well), and haven't listened to them for years. I love the books, so yeah. Some warm Egyptian desert scenes mixed with high tea and archaeology could be just the ticket. That sounds like a perfect decision. Have an excellent day and I'll be back tomorrow, hopefully much warmer and a bit better rested - LOL.
