The workload increased today, but in the nice way that allowed me to work at my own pace without stress. All the added work was preparations for deliveries tomorrow morning, so I could take them at any speed I liked. There was a time of calm inbetween this morning's orders and the time when tomorrows' orders came in that I used to send out application forms to all the people who have applied for using the online service this year. 44 people I think it was. That makes 44 envelopes licked, and 88 stamps to go with that (stamped return envelope included), yum! Nice to have time for work like that without feeling stressed though, that's not everyday.

So, tomorrow morning will probably be the hardest start of the week. It might not be overwhelmingly so, but I think it will feel a bit more stressed than Monday and Tuesday. The rest of the day will most likely be even calmer than the previous days, with nothing to prepare for at all. I plan to finish as early as possible and then head over to visit Petter. Then we're moving on to Henrik's place to participate in game playing and general relaxation. On Thursday I can probably allow myself to not be at work until 7, so I can be late to bed tomorrow night :-) ...

Tonight will be interesting as well. At 19:00 I'll be at dad's place for dinner and, more interesting, getting a haircut from Stina. It's long overdue that I get one, I haven't planned to grow my hair long again but it's largely been heading that way thanks to lazyness in contacting barbers. This is much cooler, and free too :-) ... She regularly cuts dad's and her childrens' hair as well, so it's not as if I'm a guinea pig or anything. More on that once it's over with ...

He, the unusual pacing of the day fooled me back into the old habit of skipping lunch as well. I'm not feeling as starved as I used to though, probably because I haven't been stressing at all, in difference to what I used to do when I was newer to this. I felt pretty okay without food after breakfast, and I did have plenty of that. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, no doubt about it ...
