Catching My Breath

It's almost the end of March and it feels like I've missed a month of time. Here's a list of things I did in March -
  • learned the new route to the office
  • learned what simultaneous interpretation means and how it works
  • didn't acknowledge weekends,or even hours in a day
  • organized a dinner for 471 people
  • learned that votives and mirrors will throw off just enough light to see food and dining companions
  • looked on as the dinner guests dined under the great blue whale at the American Museum of Natural History
  • was soundly defeated by a copier/printer programmed to print double-sided only
  • met Walter Dean Myers and Ross Workman
  • was inspired by Leymah Gbowee
  • listened as Cory Booker and Brian Williams rocked the house
  • offered thanks to my colleagues for all they did - and continue to do
  • missed my family
  • got reaquainted with my family
  • hand wrote 18 thank you cards and am still going
  • missed two weeks at weight watchers and still managed to lose weight
  • jumped the car battery
  • cleaned the kitchen
  • found out the lights at the office go out at 8 pm and that security really rocks after the 11 pm shift
  • learned where the switch is to over-ride the light timer
  • went back to work
