T - 4 Days

Right, so it's been over 24 hours since my last post and I'm telling you, the news is not good *shaking of head in a I'm so disappointed in myself way*. What were my last words.... something along the lines of I best get on with the schedule. Time flies by so quickly.... Hmmm, I'm not wrong there. So, my intention was to start inputting all my hard work on Monday to our scheduling system called BSS. I got to put in a handful programmes before I had to lend my hand to other things. Did I mention that I've got a bad memory? No, well I do (but surprisingly I remember people's names freakishly well. Go figure!) and I'm now trying to wrack my brain to remember what I did yesterday. Hmmm, there was an impromptu meeting to discuss some massive data spreadsheet change, another meeting involving changes to the December 07 schedule (yes, I do feel like Christmas has come and gone. It's truly weird to be 2 months ahead all the time. I constantly think I'm in December already even though we're only in October), the ratings calculation for Tuesday, a synopses list, a phone call to IT (or was that the previous day?), lunch (always good to have a break), HD hours calculation (we hit our target, hurrah!), an amendment to October, a panicked search for my presentation notes (which I eventually found and did today and it went well, no technical hitches at all or me bumbling through it), and before I knew it, it was time to go home and January was only slightly better off than it was on Tuesday. Hmmm.....

Today, I was amending November (roll on Johnny Cash Night) and fighting with IT (this is my daily excercise, what would I do without my IT showdown?), spent some time doing some urgent research, did my presentation, er and I'm sure there was something else but I can't remember.

Will I do it? Will I be winner of the challenge? Only time will tell. I'll be back to let you know.
