I’ve had an intense week on return from work travel. All the past week, I …

…was dealing with a summer cold that I got during my recent travel, as well as a mammoth load of catch-up in the office in advance of yet another week of work travel.

My next trip will bring me to the West Coast for four meetings, two site inspections, and seeing some long-term friends and colleagues. Seven flights over six days on three different airlines looms ahead. I’ve got a lot packed into this trip!

This travel schedule is unusual nowadays. I used to travel like that in my old job and while I got used to it, the travel became such a drudge and wearing that I was actually happy not to have to do so much travel again in my current job.

But here we go …

Monday: BWI==>PHX==>SFO
Tuesday: SFO==>ACV
Wednesday: ACV==>SFO
Thursday: SFO==>SEA
Friday: SEA==>PHX
Saturday: PHX==>BWI

Whew… Spouse and I will keep in touch by phone, but it’s not the same as being in his comforting, caring arms.

Life is short: go forth and conquer.
