“Busy.. it’s worn like  a badge ”  thats the way this commercial starts..

this commercial came up in yoga tonight.. nothing special, but the message resonated deeply with me.. I’ve been starting every conversation in these last couple of weeks with “I’m sorry I can’t do XX because I’me working YY hours per week  .. (where XX=- something fun and YY = 70-80) .. I hear myself saying it like its an excuse.. or a great achievement.. it’s not.. it’s just expected.. Everyone I work with is doing the same thing as I do. calls start at 7AM (6AM tomorrow) and go through 7PM.. often later.. then work till 11 or 12 just to catch up.  It’s nuts !

Just for sanity  I knocked off work at 6 PM today for yoga and promised myself I wouldn’t do any work after that..( I had to let that slip a little to answer an email and review a draft. but other than that.. have been work free since 6PM)

I’m going to get in bed and read a book like I used to.. .. now.. where did I put all my books ?

nite all, ite sam
