As the last hour or so of my weekend slips away, I can honestly say the entire weekend seemed to slip away on me. What I mean is I did nothing really of note this weekend.
After this week, I will be on vacation so I’d like to plan out a way to get as much of my “To Do” list done before I head back to work after the Civic Holiday. Of course, I never get as much done as I want and I’m sure this particular vacation will be no different. I am, however, hoping that perhaps I’ll take a different approach. Sure, I’ll want to get some stuff done on my “To Do” list but I may just take some time to relax, recharge my batteries. Read on my back porch. Go for walks. Watch a movie or several.
This past week did have a scary moment. My folks went to get groceries and I was on a Zoom call. When I got off the call I went up to see how Mom and Dad had made out. My Mom gestured to my Dad and exclaimed “He fainted on me!” That’s right! Apparently my Dad went down at the grocery store. He was okay when he got home and has been doing okay since. As my folks are prone to do, they were both working hard around the house on Monday. (Of course he couldn’t wait until I was off work on Monday and let me cut the lawn so he did it himself.)
I am hoping that, with NASCAR off for the Olympics and me having the week off, I can catch up on my reviews of the 1987 NASCAR season. Guess you’ll want to check out Track Talk to see those updates. I also need to work on editing Part 2 of my discussion with my friend Lyz DeMarco for my Your Milner Moment podcast.
One thing I hope to get done this week is finalize signing up for a course at Fanshawe (about writing for the web) as well as some similar LinkedIn courses. Yes, I am going back to school so to speak to refine my Comms skills.
So, hopefully it will be a quiet yet productive week, both in terms of my duties at King’s and getting some of my To Do list finished and getting prepped for my time off.
Hope everyone out there is doing okay as well.
