Mondays are always difficult for me. A crashing end to the weekend, then going back to the rat-race that is work. My department is in the process of hiring an associate dean. This has been going on for a year. This is the third iteration. Hopefully we will hire one from the four candidates we are interviewing.
I am in charge of creating and setting up the agenda for each candidate’s visit. We bring them in for 2-1/2 days of interviews, campus tours, meeting with faculty/staff/students and giving them a tour of the city. A lot of work and logistics are involved. Needless to say not a lot of other work gets done. On top of that my boss is traveling to the West Indies soon and I am in charge of scheduling her flight, lodging and itinerary to three campuses in Jamaica, Barbados and Trinidad/Tobago. Also a lot of work.
Well, we are on the third candidate for the associate dean position, we have the fourth coming in on Wednesday. So by the end of the week, we should be finished.
So, Monday is not my favorite day of the week. But, my mom would say…at least you have a job. Yes mom I know.

I hear ya !
Hang in there hon, you are so good at what you do you make it all look easy. Love you MIL
I could be snarky, but I won’t, because Mondays really do stink. I hope that this all goes well. And I like ya, too, so that is a really good reason not to be snarky! Have a great afternoon!
I hope the week went well and that you’re having a wonderful weekend
I feel your pain. I was up late last night feeling very tired but can not sleep. I took two melatonin and then felt terrible in the morning. I raced out to catch the bus and by the time I got to the corner the bus was driving by. Aye! I hate that!
Yes. I am thankful for my job too.
