It's a whole new season for questions...

If you ever want to change things up, start a new job! If you ever were feeling bored, unchallenged, or full of yourself..try starting over. Where do I begin?
After 3 weeks I am still in that..."She's still here!" stage..."Do you still like it?"
"Is it what you thought it would be?"
And my favorite...."So.....how's it going?" As they tilt their head and look sideways, not sure they want to hear my answer.

As if I would actually say what is REALLY on my mind!

Every day I make at least 5 lists...things to do, people to see, places to go, questions to ask, things I need...and so on. Believe it or not, things do get crossed off the list! I have decided to try a new tactic today. Instead of spending an hour or so on each task, I am going to pick 1 task and be thorough about it. Like my web page. Yuck. It is a disaster. So, I need to just plug away and get something finished so I can publish, and say, "THAT JOB IS DONE."

I need to be more adventurous and go exploring, like take a road trip and visit people. But I remember what it was like to be a teacher the first week of school and have tech people wander into my room and expect me to drop everything to see what they wanted or needed. That is not how to make friends and influence people.

So, for now I will try to get stuff done. I will continue to make my lists and cross things off. I will be positive and cheery and helpful, and when people ask, "How's it going?" I will say what I always say, "It's going great!!"

And, as usual, whenever I see someone, I start the conversation with..."I have a question....if you have a second." Most people have some sort of answer, and I get some of my questions answered. It's a pretty good gig. I do have a ton of questions, however, and I am still learning to be patient, patient , patient.

Today is a new day...it's a whole new season for questions.
