Today it was time to take off the pajama pants and sweat pants and head back to work. Instead of going back to the library, we had a retreat, which has become an annual tradition. In the beginning, we needed to introduce ourselves and mention one expectation that we had for the day. That was difficult. I believe that if we could have some strategies that we could apply in the workplace and help to move the library forward, then maybe it would be successful. I am not sure how successful it was in the end. I hope that there are some strategies that I can utilize. One thought is, as part of the system (the library), and part of the problem, how do I change my behavior to work better in the system. It is something that I have thought a lot about. As a tenured, full professor, how can I be more positive and help others to move forward. Lots to think about.
Because I had a hard time going to sleep last night, and we had an early start, I did not go exercise this morning. I am planning on getting up tomorrow morning to exercise. I did, however, avoid the cookies, the scones (I really wanted one), the potatoes, and the muffins today. I stuck with salad and chicken for lunch. I am proud of myself because even though the stress started to rise, I stuck to the plan!
Tonight I tried a low carb enchilada bake for dinner. It was pretty good with a salad and guacamole. http://showmenan.blogspot.com/2013/07/enchilada-bake.html
