in between reviews and photo display, let me give you a quick update of my week. the first half of it was hectic, work-wise. monday and tuesday i stayed in the office till 10pm! the good news is that all my books have gone for press including the most difficult project of 2007. i have worked on this translation since april 2006 (a year and eight months) as commissioner, project manager, problem-solver, recruiter, proof-reader, legal assistant, negotiator and chaser, so it was the biggest relief to see it finished by the planned deadline. my bosses offered me a bottle of champagne as a thank-you gift. a thoughtful gesture. now i am organising its book launch in brussels and, unlike back in august when we mis-calculated the timing and thought to be able to present it in florence, i am planning this event pressure-free, and the whole process is much more enjoyable.
although i have not visited my yoga centre this week, for which i feel a subtle but deep sense of guilt, i am quite glad to be able to do nothing for a change. this weekend will be devoted to my interests, catching up with my readings, finishing the planning of our forthcoming holiday, writing at least a review and do some e-shopping... i am also starting looking ahead to next year and drafting my resolutions, as some of them may be quite radical and require some serious preparation.
