That was the week that was

Well that went well. My first week back at work proved to be eventful. My working week is pretty hectic, Tuesday and Thursday, 9am til 111am to start with, for a couple of weeks. The it will increase slowly, provided I am ok, until. I am back to full time, or as full time as I can manage. To give you a flavour of my week, here's a short run down of what I did

Cleared 5,000 emails. this was a mammoth task, made much easier by cntrl + Alt + delete. This selected all emails and deleted them. I kept everything within the last 6 weeks for me to review. This was on the basis that anything older was defunct. Then after reviewing those I had left, I was left with 7 to actually worry about. Great, less than 1 a month I have been off. Only wish that was the case normally.

Made some decisions. I actually got asked 3 questions that needed an answer. One answer was to send the person to someone else. They told me they were harder to get hold off than me, exactly I replied! The 2 others were pretty simple as well.

Networked. One thing I was tasked with was to find out how the business had. Anged and to network again. This was my easiest task, as you know I do like a chat. So at least 2 hours this week was spent catching up on issues with various colleagues. Next time we meet, I will have to ask about work rather than everything else. If I did not catch up with you, sorry, will try harder next week.

Review new IT systems. I also took the time to learn the new IT systems, namely time recording and expenses. These look pretty straightforeward, and better that anything we had before, which makes a change

Meetings. I even managed to sneak in a couple of meetings, mainly about coming back to work.

And that was it. So now I am off to enjoy my 4 day weekend, have a good one all
