Work- We've had a couple of resignations...NOT MY FAULT! It's the work's fault really. We're kinda going through a painful period of change, and with a truckload full of stakeholders, its really just difficult sometimes to gain any clarity.
PLUS...my brain may not be capable of producing the high quality output required. It's sputtering, perhaps because I'm just not teaching it enough. I'd rather read tabloid news about how Blake Lively was in a red polka dot bikini over 4th of July weekend with Ryan Reynolds than plough through work related reading. Bah!
So my fault I suppose. And I suppose its not too terrible that I prefer to come home and read Eric Carl's 'The Very Busy Spider' again and again for Irfan, than log in and clear my emails, except I do have a team of people who work for me, who need my guidance, and really I'm the fool who knows nothing.
Sigh...I'm trying hard everyday to feel that I do them some service of helping them gain clarity on their assignments rather than confuse them further.
DAMN! I def need to do something about this. So, blogging every evening, just doesn't seem as a productive use of my time...some times.
Non-Work- I'm on a diet. Well, it really started with an Iphone app that tracks my caloric intake. Tsk, for me to lose weight, my target calorie intake is 1200. Which I think is miniscule. Anyways...it did help me gain better conciousness of what i was eating. And on days that I was going to go over my 1200 caloric goal, I actually went for a brisk walk or jog (when I could) to keep within my target.
Good news is that- I've lost about 2 kilos so far, and we're about a month into calorie counting! Bad news is that I think I'm a bit crankier than usual. It's the sugar withdrawal I tell ya!
Oh, and a good friend and me signed up with a fitness trainer for 1 on 2 training once a week. Its brilliant! With the calorie counting and him watching out for our diet, and giving me exercise 'homework' for the week, i'm starting to feel that I'm off on a terrific start!
This week, I've fulfilled my exercise homework- which is supposed to be just 20 mins of interval training, twice a week. I did about 40-50 mins each time this week. yaaay!
Wish me Luck! Me hopes this continues!..... =)
