Pretty good, though long day. Did the field trip. It went well, we ended up with a good turnout and stuff.

I was unhappy with Sarah taking DaWayne and Deadra out for dinner after the trip. Really not a good idea. End of story. Let her take DaWayne and Deadra home with Steve and with a permission slip. But must make clear to Steve that if she wants to do this, she must do it separately from him and his mom is clear about this. No exceptions.

Pretty good day. Still exhausted. Very sad that Fernando got hurt yesterday.

The leaving of Bashir has been stressful for me as has the new breakfast situation. I knew when the guys moved over here that I wouldn't like it. I also don't like much sharing the responsibilities with Fernando regarding the mold moves.

Did get most lr stuff done for ft and called kids and hopefully they'll come. Otherwise all else reasonably well.

Pretty good day.

Saw Steven Levitt and Dubner. Enjoyed it at the Milken Institute. Sorry I didn't make an attempt which would have been easy to speak with the person sitting next to me. She seemed nice, pretty, and had read the book. It would have been fun to talk with her about it. I kind of had my mind on someone else who I didn't sit next to (this might have been silly as well).

From now on, have low expectations, if you can meet one person, do so and talk with them.

Did get some filing done at desk which was good. Also getting lr stuff done, mostly. Not much else. Was rather tired when I got home. Must be better prepared when get home!

Pretty good day. Not great. Did see Governors but got overwhelmed by the Valence / 700 Markers move. Overall doing okay. Was sorry that Judy didn't join me. Did get some filing done at home and some quicken downloading.

Need to get more into the habit of daily stuff at home.

So-so day. Was down. Went home a bit early. Tried to get car fixed but to no avail. Tried to get haircut but to no avail. Hated being at break with the guys. Hopefully that will be the last time.

Did transcribe my entire tr which was great. I need to get into that habit. I also need to get into the habit of packing my car w/junk.

All in all okay.

Good day yesterday though when I got home I pretty much fell asleep. Need to find a comfortable position for myself inside that doesn't involve lying on my bed.

Was happy with playing tennis yesterday and getting lots done at work afterwards (organizationally). Do need to pack car when I get home and pack bag too. Can't wait until following morning. That just won't work.

All otherwise okay. I like the schedule (9-10, ..; 10-11..).

So - so Saturday. How can I make my apartment like my work -- lots of light, comfortable, able to focus, etc. Perhaps just need to go to library and have a laptop or ???

Had a pretty good session though not much of a turnout. Had a nice time with Matthew for Lunch and then went home and did blog and do a few things though not much before watching a movie and sleeping. Did actually chuck some magazines and newspapers (after going through them). Need to keep on top of them and chuck them as much as possible. Also put filing case on desk and will try to file as much as I can in there as well as file from there to cabinet once a week (Fridays?).

Otherwise, did transcribe tr which was great. Need to make as much use of tr as possible and then transcribe. Need to make a point of reading the transcription daily and weekly and so on so its fresh and I can also edit it and refer back to it.
