RSS feedGee, what a week!
When you get to my age, it becomes increasingly rare to have one of those “most X in life” experiences. However, last week was probably the busiest week of my life, and trust me, I’ve had my fair amount of busy weeks in the past!
With not only significant day job project deadlines, but also six pretty big part time/hobby projects either due or beyond my delaying control, the week culminated with a pretty important on-stage appearance, for which sleep was going to be fairly critical. Even by the previous Monday, six days out, d-day minus 6 if you will, it was obvious that sleep deprivation, or deep sleprivation as I called it on d-day minus 1, was going to be the theme for the week.
Anyway, this means that blogging should perhaps increase again, sleep should improve, and I now have this sense of standing atop of summit, looking back down on the remains of projects and deadlines that were ticked off last week, and the ultimately not too impressive performance on the final day. This was all topped off by d-day plus 1 being a pretty important anniversary for me, which changes the perspective somewhat.
I’ll remember this week for a long time to come, for while to those around me it probably seemed fairly insignificant, it was indeed the busiest week of my life, when every waking moment was actually working on something that needed to be delivered to someone by a certain time.
When was your last “most X in life” experience? Perhaps that should be my mantra going forward, to have them more often than I have been of late.
