Well, this week has been a doozy, and only going to intensify for me work-wise. We’re in the midst of a few big projects, coupled with 6am meetings becoming the norm twice a week. I decided to try and multitask by using my walking pad during the early morning meetings, clocking in about 2,500 steps. I can walk and talk on the street or along the reservoir no problem, but doing it on a walking pad is definitely more challenging.

I can only hope my colleagues appreciate my commitment to physical fitness when I have to turn my camera on to talk. I do think an adjustable height desk would help for this, so if anyone has a recommendation for one they love that’s compact (ideally 40-inches) and isn’t too expensive, please let me know.

Taking time for a leisurely lunch, homemade lunch is usually a priority, and a perk of working from home. Unfortunately lately, I find the time available to cook lunch is very limited, so having some ready-made shortcuts are helpful.
