Monday morning and the library is empty. Other than working on a manual, my calendar is barren. What a delicious way to begin a week after the strenuous conference and course demands of last week. I am blessed to have such unplanned pacing appear on my schedule.
Many staff are off today, and some library faculty are away at a conference. I sit quietly in my office and catch up on email and projects. I think there might be 3 of us in the building, including students. A true summer leisure - this does not happen often! I find myself being able to organize for the coming weeks, some of which will again be challenging.
The best part of today is that I can rest my bruised brain! Not sorting through complex issues and regurgitating profundity and prosody. I can actually go on auto pilot and muddle through with what I call grunt work - that repetitive labor that one can do while semi asleep. I savor the break. It doesn't happen often.
