It has been an odd day. Mostly because I have been asking odd questions of people. I’ve been a bit disappointed though because many of the things I have asked of people, I’m not getting.

I asked someone I know to be a coach to help me as a coach, but he’s too busy and passed me along to someone else. I don’t know how that will work out, but I will just wait and see. I’m disappointed though.

I made a unusual proposal to a friend of mine. He also turned me down once he found out what it really was. I think he was considering my proposal when he thought he knew what it was. Oh well. More disappointment.

I have been taking on asking people for things, help, etc. Especially those things I think they will say “no” to. It seems that my requests are occurring as unusual and odd. I’m probably being a freak in their worlds.

I noticed the “freak magnet” category as I was picking where to put this post. I still have that happen, but they seem much less freaky than they used to. I may be showing up as the freak now. But then I always admit that I am.

It’s amazing what extra rest can do. No more sore throat. A bit achy still. Just in time for the next few days of probably little sleep.

I think my body is finally getting sick. I have been battling a sore throat for six days. Now my sinuses are involved in the whole thing. I’m looking forward to spending the afternoon getting some much needed rest. I spent last week not getting enough sleep.

Not quite yet. I haven’t recovered from the disruption in my schedule. It probably shouldn’t take so long, but there are so many things I have to do to catch up on. Often that means not getting other stuff done.

Well, it’s no surprise that I’m tired after the weekend. I had a lot less sleep than normal. I was more awake earlier today than now.

San Francisco was chilly. The winds pick up in the afternoons bringing the warmer air across the bay, and it’s rather cold. It was extremely windy on the highway home yesterday. The winds coming across the bay were strong.

The weekend was good. I had a friend who is in the program in San Francisco ask me about my weekend. It’s a different experience as a coach. Mostly it was a weekend of a lot of work to be done and knowing where to be when. As someone who is making the weekend work for those in the program, I just don’t have the same experience as the people in the program. I did appreciate the conversations about other leadership roles from those in those roles. Those who spoke are people I already know because they are from San Jose, but I didn’t know the things they said about themselves.
