A 'normal' working week?

Ok; Having tried blogging during the Fulbright I have decided to continue to blog but this time about my everyday stuff - what I do and observations on various things I come across. Not sure what it will be like, but we shall see....

I have a very interesting, varied and challenging job. This week alone for example -

Thursday finalising a DVD on the DCAL accommodation move;

Followed by the opening of the Ulster Museum after an £18 million refurbishment - see interview with Minister Nelson McCausland;

And then that evening a talk on "why are we here" by a professor Mark Hendry from Glasgow organised by the Armagh Natural History and Philosophical Society and Armagh Observatory, part of the Internal Year of Astronomy.

Then on Friday attending a play by Mark O'Rowe called Terminus, a poetic, Faustian demonic tale of modern Dublin, straying into fantasy, sex, violence and tragedy, told by three actors on a minimalist stage - see the Times review.

On Saturday in Belfast Sir Steve Redgrave gave a talk called "be inspired" followed by a Q&A - he told of how he got into rowing, how he overcame Diabeties, and what kept him motivated.

All of these were necessary as part of my work. My job involves oversight, support or organisation of these activities and events to differing degrees - difficult to beat it really. Must remind myself of this when next I am stressed out by it....
