wispfoxMy November is _FAR_ too busy. It's only halfway through and I want to sleep for a week.
On the plus side, the two weekends of intensive training are over (a few more evenings of training left). And those two weekends, completely aside from the intended things to be learning, taught me that I really _really_ need to be scheduling more flexibility into my schedule, especially on the weekend. Especially considering that I am likely to be working 1-6p on Saturdays on the hotline, presuming that's where I start out working (not sure how ready I feel, or would be considered, so it's not certain). Am working on adjusting that.
So. Drained. And _WAY_ low on social energy.
Not going to Psinging on Friday. Need that time to myself, as it's my only free time this week.
Probably going to put Alexander Technique on hold for the winter, after my next appointment. Too much time and money and energy requirement there, and insufficient immediate beneficial results.
It's definitely November, light-wise. SAM-e useful. But need to be better about light box first thing in the morning (problem is that it's _much_ less useful if there are other sources of sunlight in the room, so I really should be getting up at 7a in order to use it).

Date: 2005-11-14 08:12 pm (UTC)Yes, definitely. Less in terms of being able to see that I get less tense, and more for having things to _do_ if I notice really crappy posture while doing something which is too damn low for me while standing.
As for study group: time is an issue this month, and the impending winter makes my energy levels low. However, when it's not winter, that might be a possibility, depending on how often it'd meet.
