I worked from home today. That is my normal schedule on Wednesdays, but this is not a normal Wednesday. The day before a holiday means there are fewer people working than normal. One of our goals at work is to always have at least one manager there in person, in case. I was checking with other managers to be sure someone was planning to be on site. One asked whether I should go in, just to experience my last Thanksgiving Eve at work.
One of the increasing “lasts” that keep popping up.
I have my last annual review on the horizon. I am not concerned about this review. What are they going to do? Fire me?!
I was also pursuing our bienial budget document, set to be adopted on Monday. I was almost taken aback when I looked at the organization chart.


I guess it’s just starting to feel more real. But that means I need to get my work done!😵💫
