My life for the past three months hasbeen dominated by my job. I'm working long hours 5 days a week, no actual weekends, plus getting everything running smoothly with new bosses and coworkers while the business is growing faster than anyone anticipated is proving to be a big challenge. I'm very glad I took this job and I'm confident everything will settle into an agreeable pattern but until then it's a lot of extra work. I've had to set boundries which has been hard because my first reaction to "can you do this?" is always "yes" whether or not it's a good idea. I've been trying to reassure myself that sometimes saying no will not make me look like a bad employee as long as I have good reasons for it.
Hot yoga has been a challenge for me as well, but it's shaking up my workout routine nicely and I'm trimming up a bit. I've decided to ty going gluten free and so far I feel great.
I haven't done any fencing outside the salle in maybe six weeks. I kind of miss it, but also am happy to circumvent the political side of the SCA fencing game and only fence at AdS where a person gets status by meeting concrete standards and there's only one ass to kiss instead of 53 :) I know, I "shouldn't" be so competitive, but this is me. Remving myself from the competitive tourney environment is the only reliable method for getting around my inner competitive streak. I'll be back, but not until January. at that point I'm expecting work to have settled down enoug for me to have spare energy for that stuff.
