Taking a Break
I have been sitting here documenting my notes and observations here in Shelton for the last two hours. I think it is time for a 5 minute break. So, am I going to go outside or walk away from my computer? Nope. Type, type, type.
Things have been going very well here in the Wiffle Ball capital of the United States (seriously, I drive by the plant almost every single day). The one thing that I am noticing is that I am begining to get burned out on this lifestyle. Primarily that is due to the fact that I have not even been home in almost 3 weeks. That could do it.
Today I am really tired and not feeling all that great. I made the decision last night at dinner to eat some carbs (or more than I normally do) and that is coming back to haunt me. I will probably feel a lot better as the morning wears on and my insulin starts to kick in. We'll see. Right now I am dragging along and feeling like I have a fever. Tonight I will probably just hit the hotel and eat in my room.
This weekend I have some big plans. Ok, by big plans I mean "I have no plans at all." I hope to spend the entire weekend in my bed watching movies, but I can't guarantee that. Tara is going out to a party on Friday night and I am going to try to take Trevor to see the new Harry Potter movie (which he and Tara have already seen).
Saturday will be the real day of rest and then Sunday will be spent in bed again until about 7PM. I am heading up to Deirdre's house to watch the season finale of The Soprano's. Yay.
Monday. Back to Shelton for one last week. I really hope that I am helping these guys out and improving their lives. This has been an interesting and educational experience for me on the dynamics between different functional groups within an organization. Can't wait to see if I am doing some good here.
