Days of learning the challenges – 3/20/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I am exhausted, working a lot, and still have drama at work. I have accounting entries to adjust, correct, and move posted charges to the proper project accounts. The communication that I put out of budgets being low has settled on everyone. The news came like a bomb, they…

Observing people closely – 3/19/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m getting help from the people I least expected. I walked in to work today feeling beaten down. I took a deep breath and my co-worker who I wish would be my boss came in to my office and I immediately told him what occurred yesterday. He mentioned things…

Down time – 2/25/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I got lucky today that I had some time to breathe. I am glad that I got to pick up my son from school. I’ve been working diligently trying to understand everything and get up to speed. Almost all my co-workers are new. I still have more to learn.…

Surrounded by the same struggles – 2/17/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. It seems things run slow here. It takes quite a bit of energy to get tasks completed. It seems like I will have to plan, adapt, and be patient. Working silently helps to get through very detailed tasks, the many moving parts. I’m slowing breaking barriers. I’m seeing breakthroughs…

Friday reflection – balancing priorities – 2/14/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. These last couple days I’m having to be patient and go with the flow. I did learn a few things this week and my boss is trying to get me up to speed. Just today I began to feel better about my role. I’m sure there is a lot…

The work of team – 2/13/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I hadn’t known what teamwork is for a while until I got to this organization. Oh boy! I am exhausted, busy, so much being thrown at me. I am resilient and persistent too. I won’t give up. The best part is that there is teamwork. This is so important…

The need for change- 2/12/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. The need is high to make changes. It seems we’re all just working and that’s okay. We’re all working for the same cause, but we’re working without structure. It’s challenging when you’re learning new systems, catching up with tasks that were not resolved, and then a new cycle of…

Minutes left today Thursday – 1/30/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. With 30 minutes left before I go to bed I am journaling the past 2 days at work just now. It’s 8:30pm and I just sat down and have one hour to myself. It’s been a hectic week. I was nearly in a fetal position feeling exhausted, but I…

Wacky Wednesday – 1/29/15
I hope everyone is doing okay. Back into action today. Another day of budgets training and most of it didn’t make sense to me with all the acronyms. At noon I began entering payroll for people who are working on a new project for the next budget year’s forecast. The day prior I attended a…

Tornado Tuesday – 1/28/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I am trying to keep up. Last week’s snow storm didn’t help now because everyone is probably trying to get back on track. I keep getting tasks without a lot of direction. I hear my outlook email ding once again and I cringe because it’s most likely something else…
