On my phone's desktop right now

A quote from Robert Benchley: Anyone can do any amount of work provided it isn't the work he is supposed to be doing at the moment.

Off to work we go

I have been here for over an hour and I'm just now getting to 'work' work.

FW: Conversation with Sargeant, Becky

Lol, I'm surprised Becky never said anything earlier lol. 

Even after all of these years of trying to condition myself to think inside of my head, it still feels unnatural to do so.  It just does not 'feel' right to have only had the thought inside of my head.  It's not completely 'thought out' until I have spoken it.

Thanks ….

Sargeant, Becky [2:43 PM]:

Do you realize you are (8) out loud?  :)

Collins, Monica P. [2:44 PM]:

Yeah.  I try to do it quietly.  It's probably more noticable at the moment cuz it's really quiet right now.

Sargeant, Becky [2:45 PM]:

I hear it frequently, but just wondered if you realized - I've worked with people before and they didn't realize - they thought they were just mouthing - I'd tell them they were singing out loud and they'd be :$

just curious is all

Collins, Monica P. [2:47 PM]:

yeah, i know.  I don't have much of an 'in my head' voice, which is why I'm always talking to myself lol.

Sargeant, Becky [2:47 PM]:

I can relate sometimes - I get mine from for the most part living alone

Collins, Monica P. [2:47 PM]:

lol

Unfortunately for me, I'm wired that way.  Quite a few abstract thinkers have the same quirk.

Sargeant, Becky [2:48 PM]:

right

My new mentor

I had a meeting with Mickey Bradford this morning.  This is going to go very well, if I do say so myself.  He has coached some ADHDers in the past, so he’s well versed in that.  That will help immensely.  He has already warned me that he gives assignments to his mentees, which I think is a good thing; IMO, things stick better with people when you are more involved with it.  I am supposed to come up a 5-year plan.  I have been trying to locate my list that I did a few years ago (to the point of obsession, meaning that I’ve gotten anything else done), but I can’t locate it at all.  I just came across a printed copy of it a few weeks ago, and wouldn’t you know that I threw it out (figures).  As it was, I had not kept up with that one at all.

 

This will be a good thing.
