The focus today is to get the proposal done. The team has too many people and they still don’t have focus, too many cooks in the kitchen. We are making progress, but it is slow.
The big event today was lunch with senior executives visiting the region. Of course, we ate at the Intercontinental hotel - this time it was the Greek Restaurant. Our office manager ordered the food. Bring us some appetizers, lamb chops, kabobs, potatoes and desert. OMG. They brought one of each appetizer for three people (there were 12 people in total), 8 healthy lamb chops for each four people, same on kabobs (chicken and beef) a bowl of potatoes – we had to tell them to stop bringing food. Finally, they brought desert. Everyone got a cup of ice cream, piece of baklava and there were several plates of cut fruit put on the table. No need for dinner tonight.
I had several Monday routine calls with the office in DC which extended the day. In between calls my mother called to tell me my step father passed away. She seemed relieved. When you don’t know what the future holds in that situation it becomes very stressful.
Since there is no dinner tonight I thought I’d help the digestion by going to the gym and spending some time on the treadmill. It felt good.
