What a week!

O.K. It is just insanity these days. I am trying to pull it all together. This week I had two papers due, two new interns to train at Teen Voices, two books to read, two people to interview, and two medical appointments.

Now I have two loads of laundry to do, two loads of dishes to wash, two letters to write, two craft projects to finish.

I guess you could say, I had a case of the terrible twos.

In short, too much to do!

At Long Last

Hello! It has been a long time since I posted about my daily doings. I guess part of this is because I am busy, part of this is because many of these things have now become second nature thanks to this blog, and part of this is because my routine has been turned on its head a bit with my husband traveling for work a lot in the past couple of weeks. After two weeks of travel, he is home for a week before heading out on another week long trip a week from today. Crazy, but still productive.

Secretary Skills

A lot of the things I did at Teen Voices today were secretarial in nature. All of them were important. I don't think I am above any of these tasks, but I have been a secretary before. I want to be an editor. So, I think there should be secretarial interns to take care of the little odds and ends. Being a secretary is complicated and important. There is lots to know and, in my experience, there are many things you are expected to figure out on your own along the way. I think offering secretarial internships would be beneficial to companies and to the interns.

Word and Image

I stopped to listen to a street musician yesterday. My idea of the day is a book of photos of street performers accompanied by their story or an interview with them by the photographer.
