Tuesday morning riff



First full day back at work after the India trip and so:


  • Went to bed at 21:00 last night and forgot to set my alarm;

  • Woke up in the dark and realised I'd forgotten - looked at the clock and saw that it was 02:15;

  • Went downstairs to my office and set the alarm for 05:30 - then back to bed;

  • Drifting in and out of sleep, writing emails in my head and putting together an imaginary Powerpoint slide deck on digital workflow;

  • Annie and I both awake at 05:00, so we came downstairs and had coffee in the kitchen, whilst watching the snow fall outside - somewhat of a climate change from Goa!


That's two consecutive mornings where we have woken well before the alarm - yesterday it was in our London hotel.


The good news is that I'm unpacked, on my third laundry load, office all set up nice and neat and tidy.


Today:


  • Emails, emails, emails;

  • A very daunting list of tasks, some of which travelled all the way to India and back and still haven't been started;

  • A podcast recording with Ashley;

  • 8 Zoom calls;

  • My Tuesday evening client webinar, interviewing Alison King from Bespoke HR on the current employment landscape.


A very early start again tomorrow as I'm on the first train down to London for three days of meetings.


35 shopping days to Christmas.......
