Your eyes aren’t deceiving you. I’m doing work to the site this week to update the site theme and clean up some broken links. In the meantime pages may not look as they should. I should have everything back up and working by sometime next week. I hope. Any problems after that should be brought to the attention of the management. (Me.) I had seen literally dozens of dull shots of stranded travelers, but had to go looking for some shots of the Icelandic volcano itself. (I’m not even going to TRY to spell it.) In the search I found this collection of high-definition photos collected by The Big Picture, a photo-journalism blog on the Boston Globe’s website. These are breathtaking shots, beautiful and frightening at the same time. This advice was gathered from actual submissions a good friend of mine received for a part-time administrative assistant and receptionist position (thanks Jamie!) What has happened to business education in our schools? Do not: 1. Write your cover letter in “text speak” Oh man, WHERE can I get one of these? Normally the Japanese obsession with kawaii (cuteness) isn’t really my thing, but this video gave me a huge belly laugh this morning:
Okay, another twelve inches on top of the 23 inches Saturday, we can handle it. Third crippling storm in a single season? We’re cool. Having more snow than my old hometown of Rochester, New York? Unfair, but I’m able to be philosophical about it. But all the other snowy cities in the U.S. laughing at our struggles? Now that ain’t nice. Way to hit a town when we’re down. More video this morning as we are socked in with another winter storm. This time we don’t have as much accumulation but high winds are making visibility very poor. This shot of the birds at the feeder show how visibility can suddenly go to nothing.
Don’t give me the blame for calling this storm “the snowpocalypse”. The media have been calling it that since Thursday, before it even took shape. It’s still snowing heavily right now (11:20AM on Saturday). I took some video this morning when the snow was light enough to see out. Right now it’s coming down too hard for video to really show what’s going on. I’ve no idea how much we’ll have by tonight, when it’s finally supposed to stop!
It’s been a busy week, juggling two consulting clients, one new client proposal, five yoga classes and my part-time work at Unity Woods. I love the variety, and am becoming much better at juggling after a few months practice. Part of the secret seems to be maintaining as much yogic detachment as possible. I do the best job I can, and then try to let it go. That’s not to say that I feel I’m doing a slapdash job, just that I try not to get over-involved in politics and non-essentials. I serve my students, my clients and my employer, and then I put it aside and try to give my full attention to my husband, my home and myself. That’s the ideal, anyway. None of it would be possible without a supportive spouse who pitches in to do the grocery shopping and bathroom cleaning in weeks like this. Thank you darling! |
