15th Entry, February 9th, Items and blog- FINA, Overdoing it and burnout

I had a tough weekend last weekend.
Before I start writing about it in my blog, below are just general items I want to put in.

First: A special shoutout to Bob S. and Dianne Y. on the 27th anniversary of the worst day
in my professional career. I miss you guys, I hope all is well for you wherever you are.

Second: Happy B-day on Friday the 13th to the L-man.

Third: My brother's friend Bob is not doing well as he is fighting pancreatic cancer. If you have a moment say a prayer for him.


*Blog*

Last weekend was tough. SLP (aka SLOP, Speech, Language and Pathology) gave me a new way to do schedules that would help me with memory and organization. I dove into it on Friday and
pushed to do it correctly; the issues I had was I overdid. I spent 4-5 hours working this new model/schedule and by 5 pm I was tired, really fried. I could not think straight.

The carried over to both Saturday and Sunday. I began to become bummed out, and thought this may lead to terminal FINA. I won't tell you what it is but it bothered me alot. I slept an additional 10 hour over the weekend without energy. Finally today I started to feel like I had more energy.

After going back to OT and SLP today they both said this is good this happened here and not at work. They did not give me guidelines but did not expect someone to dive into it like I did. We relooked at the list and made it more workable. It took going over the edge to learn where it was.

Last item: Pronouncia

I have coined a new word to describe the language I hear alot of these days. It is called "pronouncia". People that are fluent in pronouncia speak in terms of hes, shes, that thing, etc. If you do not speak pronouncia you are who asking, who he or she or what si that thing. If you are fluent to that person's dialect you can understand it. Here is a clue, most people are not fluent.
