Well, here we are, January. Holidays are over, but the spring semester hasn't started just yet (next week! aaugh!). I can't make it to any of the crew events this week because they're all happening during work time. The last of the egg-counting wrapped up over the holidays (thanks to the incredible work of the minions), so there's actually something of a lull in the research schedule. I submitted one manuscript while we were in Minneapolis, and am just about ready to submit another one now. There are more projects on the horizon, though.

All of this makes this one of those weeks for reorienting. My subconscious keeps trying to tell me I'm being lazy, because I'm not leaping out of bed in the mornings to get stuff done. But that isn't the whole story; the other half of my subconscious would like to know what the plan and goals are - what should I work on? There are rowing things on the horizon that require anticipation and preparation. I am also (FINALLY!) feeling like it's time for a long bike ride or two, so those need to be incorporated into the agenda.

For starters, I think this weekend I'll ride out to the lake and do a couple of long rows. See how the equipment is looking and how I feel, assuming the weather cooperates. If it doesn't, I'll erg instead. Much easier to manage during daylight hours, and when my time doesn't feel too restricted.

I'm getting there. Reorienting just takes time.
