Everyone safely returned from their travels and holiday visitings. We are all back in our offices and at our desks, preparing for the return of undergrad students, getting our desk schedules set, marking our calendars, booking library instruction classes, setting out new books, making sure everything is working properly. It is good to have this week of preparation before we jump into the busyness of the semester.
It feels awkward, returning to regularly scheduled activities, akin to going to the gym after laying around doing nothing for weeks. Muscles that have done nothing are now asked to work and work hard. It makes you tired in a healthy way. Good thing we have some time before it gets really hopping around here. Time for the stiffness to dissipate and time for us to get used to high levels of activity once again.
Rest is good, routine is helpful, being fit and capable the best.
