I am still feeling the pinch of ‘having no time’.
Work continues to be a bit too much, what with trying to fold the departed doctor’s patients into the workload. Thanks to the flu, I’ve not been able to use the Dictaphone; talking sets off a terrible hacking (and the recording device doesn’t care for it). So I have been typing my reports, which are getting briefer and briefer. I fear I am going to go towards –
”Dickey Purdy is a 35yo married man who is crazy as a sh-t house rat. I put him on Abilify as fast as I could. End of story. “
Things are piling up and I have to resign myself to the fact I can’t keep up anymore. Rx and calls and paperwork are a day or two behind.
We’ve had out of town visitors, and more are to come. It is pleasant to see them but they do require some time and effort (and feeding).
This week I see (again) I have no free evening. None of it is ‘bad’; it is merely time consuming (and this being Arizona, there is a lot of time spent driving to get to things).
Monday – dinner next door for the neighbors to entertain my parents
Tuesday – The monthly staff meeting at work
Wednesday – bell choir practice
Thursday through Sunday – I fly to Chicago for a weekend of medical conferences, meetings with the accountant and the investor, and a couple of operas.
So it is another week of not being able to read my blog list; of not being able to get to the personal trainer; of lack of proper sleep. No fun in that.
I hang onto the philosophy time can not be made or saved - it can only be used wisely or foolishly. And this too shall pass – things are bound to settle down in April.
