And... I feel distance between myself and my partners and friends.
I'm sorry to hear you feel distance. What do you think is causing it? I suspect being on the road for 3 weeks is a major factor, and once things settle down you'll close the gap on that distance.
The three automated-drilling projects are just barely meeting expectations... granted, it's early on them all.
I've been concerned about these projects as well. Let's talk about this when I come in -- which will be in about another hour or so.
thanks to two management changes, my new boss knows nothing about what I'm doing or have done. Sigh.
I was wondering how all the IC changes would affect us. More discussion there, too, would be useful.
But after three consecutive weeks of business travel, and loud competing demands on my time, I'm feeling lonely, burned-out and a bit down. Must muster energy to attack the paper and my falling-behind projects....
I'm sorry you're feeling lonely, burned-out, and a bit down. =( *hugs*
Could you just catch your breath for a moment and attack the project one little piece at a time? I'm hoping that if I do that, I'll feel less self-concious about how the drilling projects are going. I've been given some hard deadlines in the short run and I have to work on things a little at a time myself. IVHM and the trip to AL drained me a bit, and I'm coming down with the gang's cold. So doing things a little at a time is all I can do anyway.
