We're in the time of year, aren't we?
Christmas (for those who celebrate) is two weeks away, leading up to a little bit of both anticipation of excitement, but also anxiety and sadness for some.
Looking forward to the new year, new possibilities.
And for me, I'm currently in anticipation mode for tomorrow's RVR. It's been "a minute," y'all, since I've taken one. Trying to ground myself, remember that I've been practicing pretty consistently (except for a couple of weeks in there when I was doing celebration stuff), and that it's just 24 minutes...
However you're feeling, though, remember that it's okay. You're entitled to your feelings and I hope that you find your way through your anticipation in a positive manner.
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?!
