The time change threw me off - really badly - I'm a night owl so pushing my late nights to be later throws my mornings off. I tried to go to bed early last night... but then I woke up TOO EARLY. I'll get there.
Had some fun stuff over the past two days:
Committee meeting (yay, chamber!)
Invitation to present at a career fair (also connected to chamber contacts)
Picked up my truck from the shop so my brakes are all fixed
Got a call to cover a day up in Ashe County (pretty drive)
and
I've been playing with my updated fee schedule, which includes that pesky little cancellation fee for same-day cancellation (we talked about this in our Zoom).
I feel so accomplished today! Hopefully I'll get my clock working right in the next few days.
Happy St. Patrick's Day! And another Monday. I'm still dragging with the time change so I'm starting later in the day than normal. But I'm excited to start a new week with so many projects, a trip to convention, some consulting gigs, some volunteering. I think that's what I love so much about what we do, y'all. Every day, every week, every month can be an adventure! Ain't it grand? (Now I just need to find time for a nap)

You all know I love giving back... and I've been speaking at the local law school for many years now, sharing with the students who will be future litigators how they can work WITH court reporters to create a truly excellent record.
I love doing this - and if you have the chance, please consider doing it in your area. The "baby" lawyers appreciated it and the next generation of court reporters will too!
We all love rituals - girls nights, massages, regular workouts... but what about our working rituals?
Do you have any that ease you into your productivity? Perhaps alleviate any anxiety?
Our job as a stenographer (or captioners) is filled with stressors and if we can develop rituals for ourselves to help limit those stresses, think how healthy, happy, and productive we can become?!
