Today has come and gone in a bit of a blur if I’m honest. I woke up just after 2am with a banging headache, got up and took some ibuprofen and then tried to get back to sleep, I eventually did but then Sophiecat woke me at 4am to be fed, I managed to resist until about 5.45am, fed her and came back to bed. I haven’t had this type of disturbed sleep for a while so as much as I know I’m really quite tired, I’ve managed to function on the surface as if I’d had a great night’s sleep.
It was a uni day today and I had been asked to go to a local school and do a masterclass about business as part of the uni’s outreach programme to encourage more students to study with us. I got an email during the morning as I was preparing my presentation to say I had 11 students attending my session, so I thought great, nice size group we can have a great discussion. I arrive and there are over 30 students in a tiny very warm room. To say I was a little flustered is an understatement as it was just not what I was expecting but I survived it and they liked the freebies I was giving out so they now all know about our university and hopefully it inspired some of them to think about studying business at university.
Once I got home, the tiredness really kicked in and I’ve simply sat on the sofa with the cat on my lap and watched a couple of programmes I had recorded in the last week or so and now it’s bedtime as I can’t keep my eyes open any longer. Some days are like this where I’m simply just going through the motions of life and not a lot else. It’s the last day of March tomorrow and I really don’t know where the first 3 months of this year have gone and it’s exactly 4 months until my 45th birthday…
