At dawn, I feel like i'm using my computer through a straw. And then after a half hour of waiting long moments between switching screens and staring at performance monitors, pow, everything seems fast. I need to learn to open the thing up when i go to put the kettle on and allow the laptop to come to a boil, too.

So.

I am still doing well, despite the slow computer and intense week. The pile of to-dos sits with the same towering nature, the household mess remains horrifying to my-mother-in-my-head, but i'm feeling even.

I hardly think the light has changed that much.

I do think i've come to a sense of completed cycle, that the work crisis of mid 2009-2011 is "done," and that i have time to be "open" to life again. I can't believe that the changes wrought by the November install debacle postmortem have impressed me so, but apparently they have. I have the sense that i am no longer needed in the "OMG is no one thinking about that??!!" way i have been living. Note - I don't feel that my personal cachet in the organization has shifted in any particular way, just that the crisis is ending.

With the ebb -- or even the promise of an ebb -- in crisis, the timeline for change agains seems to set itself back out to 2016. While weathering the crisis at the Whale, Christine has been able to get some bedrock under her.

And it's lunch time and i have no work meetings until ... 7:30 am Monday morning (a call i can take in the car.) Just blocked commuting time off so i can go to the office.
