Day 7 - 146 -- Preoccupied Thoughts?

One online meeting held today to practice for the upcoming presentation. We got the time in just under the wire, but only by mere seconds. So -- more practice for me tomorrow to get things to flow more smoothly and shave off a few more seconds. Other work done involved getting schedules organized so I'm not double booked with the conference sessions being every Wednesday afternoon until the end of July with a couple of Tuesday sessions thrown in for good measure. I only found one meeting that needed to be altered due to an overlap. Not bad at all.

I headed into campus to print some items only to discover i'd left the flash drive and my reading glasses at home. So, back home I went to pick up the missing items. I drove back to campus, printed and then went to check mail at a friend's home. I didn't get back to the house until about 7:45 PM, when I made supper. That's what we used to call 'fashionably late' dinner.

Being preoccupied with several parts of several projects causes me to walk into a room and not know why -- until I leave and have to walk back to complete the task. It is also a sign of stress, anxiety, and other mental health symptoms surfacing during the isolation time. Disrupted or inadequate sleep only adds fuel to that fire of forgetfulness. The lyrics of the selection for today cover forgetting and may suggest we be more like a lemon. <grin>  Stay safe. Enjoy!
