I'll be out of the office for the next couple of days, enjoying a well deserved break. Another hellish week as we uncover the names of more long time co-workers who have lost their jobs, and face more rumors of outsourcing, including the possibility of my job, by the end of the year. I try really hard not to worry about it because it is out of my control. Although this downsizing is rarely about an individual's performance - good or bad - I still do my best to work hard, stay focused and not let myself fall into that trap of goofing off that so many are tempted into when the depression of layoffs hit them. Some rumors are just that and never come to pass.
Of course the list of things I want to accomplish on my days off is probably far greater than the amount of time I'll have to spend. I need to (1) finish hemming the shrug; (2) cut out and sew the dress for the wedding; (3) sew the shoulder seams on the sashes; (4) do some more organization/clean-up in the art studio; (5) paint the garage floor; (6) meet a friend/former co-worker for lunch; (7) scan some more of my vintage images; and (8) take one day off and "play" with HK. I think I'll pack up a picnic and visit a state park with scenic views and waterfalls. Mid week we can get in free (Golden Park pass) and it shouldn't be too crowded.
I'm just gonna take each day as it comes!
