I've got 15 minutes to write this during lunch before I need to do final prep for my first class of the semester. Onto the projects!

WORK
  • I have spent several hours converting over some deeper webpages to the new format. It takes a lot of clicks, moving boxes and content, and testing to make sure everything ends up looking right. I thought I would finish this month. Nope. While I am faster than I was at the start, I'll be working on this through February.
  • I prepped some template slides for our webinar series. I then used that template to develop the outline and slides for the session I am hosting on Friday. I hope we get the same level of engagement in this session as we did in the intro. It was a lot of fun.
  • Wrote up a few more blog posts covering changes from our relocation. 
  • Doing lots of interview scheduling and logistics for our research project. While I am not looking forward to transcribing these interviews, I am very interested in what our conversations find.
  • I did some Amazon shopping for my cubicle. Before I hit purchase, I want to make sure no other needs pop up. I also want to get a plant.

PERSONAL
  • I am [thisclose] to climbing out of my personal email backlog. All those newsletters sure build up when two weeks of your life make it impossible to read them. I unsubscribed from a few that I found myself skimming more than reading. Now I just need to get through my Feedly backlog. Luckily, that is a lot shorter.
  • Bought lots of new containers for our weirdly deep pantry cabinet. Despite measuring, I am sure I will be playing Tetris with everything when they arrive.
  • Trying to sell our old surround sound speaker system. We've already agreed that if we can't sell it, we're going to add it to our building's next donation pickup. I am very much looking forward to having it out of our bedroom. Although, the tall speakers did make for a decent side table when I work from home.
  • After having "create personal mission/vision" on my to do list for *cough* several *cough* years, I finally drafted one. It took an hour. *headdesk*
  • I drafted an agenda for our annual family meeting. This started because we heard about friends who did it. It's a nice way to get on the same page about things and know where you want to focus through the coming year. When the kiddo is old enough, we plan on involving her as well.
