This has been a month of adjustments for me. New seva with a new schedule, a new roommate and a crop of new volunteers. I find myself wanting to be alone more that usual and the early waking insomnia is getting a little worse its now four or five days a week instead of the pattern of three. I tried doing three different things thinking that they may have been the source but nothing to date has worked better than sprinkling my sheets with eucalyptus oil. I worry that it is bothering my room mate who I think is just being polite about it cause she's Canadian. So most days I am mentally tired but am able to work dish crew just fine and I love the adrenaline rush of peak busy time when I do dirty take off (taking the dirty trays off the carousel). I am getting better at clean take off but last night with three hundred people (a light night) and one person short there were lots of stops and starts. Also I need to get this off my chest, the supervisor spent most of the time she was supposed to be helping me polishing cups rather than putting them in the soaking bin and moving on to other more strenuous projects. Then when I tried to put away the clean take off items she did not do she sprayed my feet with water because she wanted to wash the floors early to get out early. I can see now why at every share she talks about her life being so chaotic. She makes decisions without thinking things through (which I am also guilty of) and doesn't have any time management skills.
