In non-artsy-craftsy news:
Oct. 26th, 2006 12:10 amWork has been okay this week. Because the crisis is done, I admit I am now having a slightly hard time motivating myself to do the everyday stuff. But today was better, and perhaps the next day will be better yet. I always feel much better about my job when I'm getting stuff done.
I need to become better at delegating things, though. Both choosing to delegate things, and finding good tasks for other people.
SCUBA class tonight; the next-to-last one before the open water dives. I can't believe I'm going to be diving outside in colder weather than this. Crazy! Umm, let's see, tonight we did our second swimming test (tread water for 10 minutes). We did a controlled emergency swimming ascent. We reviewed some other stuff like mask clearing and regulator recovery. We did an, er, I can't remember the name of the entry but the one where you basically just tip backwards into the water. (I've done that one before, from a boat, and I actually think it's really easy.) We climbed out of the pool via the ladder with all of our stuff on and WOW, that air cylinder has never felt heavier. Oof.
Between SCUBA, and belly dance class last night, I am pooped. Utterly. Also, my leg muscles are slightly sore.
I think we have no plans for tomorrow night, which is probably good. I need to work on mySRP MA thesis-thingy. I have decided I will finish it by December 15th.
I also have to call the dentist tomorrow. I found a few possible ones today but of course by the time I found them their offices were all closed.
