Virtual Mondays...

“We're all stumbling towards the light

with varying degrees of grace at any given moment.”

Bo Lozoff

Returning to work on Monday.
Chaos and demanding situations;
asking the care team to wake up from their
idle weekend mind set.

JUMP IN,
MULTI-TASK,
MANAGE,
TRIAGE,
FOCUS,
BE FULLY PRESENT,
WITH EACH ENCOUNTER AND MOMENT.

I laugh,
as a co-worker calls me
with updated client information,
while on the toilet.
"I am multi-tasking," she says.

New referral,
new referral,
and yet another.
We bend and accomodate,
we put the pedal to the metal.
WE DO THE WORK.

While commitedly attending to the needs of others,
one of us locks ourself out of the office;
another has their fly undone for most of the morning.

Bring on the double lattes and infusions of caffeine.
Forgive our unpolished edges on Monday mornings.
Do know our intent is pure and genuine...
