After delivering the major client report last weekend, which took me multiple weeks to write, this last week was intended as a time to recover, but it didn’t turn out that way. I’m still tired and cranky, and generally not in a good place, resulting in an unproductive and unsatisfying week. Not sure how I can get myself out of this funk. Meanwhile unexpected developments have upped the stress. However, writing my week notes is unescapable, if only because these weekly postings have been elevated as ‘the gold standard‘ of week notes 😀

• Reconnected to the Digital Transformation work for another province, and participated in a webinar on the potential role of AI for their work
