It's a busy couple of weeks ahead. Not only is my desk swamped with paper and my inbox overwhelmed with email, but I've been working (in my day job) in London for three out of the last four Saturdays, and I've got another one to go this coming Saturday.
Meanwhile, it's Fairtrade Fortnight, and so on Tuesday night I'll be at the showing of Black Gold at the Playhouse, and on Wednesday afternoon there's the launch of the event locally, which this year includes a Celebrity Fairtrade Secrets photo exhibition in the Gibberd Gallery.
(I was pleased to get extra Nectar points at Sainsbury's this morning on my Fairtrade tea, coffee, bananas and chocolate, to celebrate Fairtrade Fortnight).
On Friday there's an event in the Harvey Centre in the morning, and another in the Civic Centre before dinner. On Saturday when I get back from working in London I have to be at the Latton Bush Centre in the evening.
The following Monday I have an all-day meeting about my aspirations project, and on Tuesday Marcela and her husband George will arrive from Prague, and Nick and I will take them out to dinner.
On the Wednesday, I'll be speaking to the Harlow Voluntary Sector Forum before the International Women's Day lunch I'm co-hosting; and then it'll be back to the Civic Centre for a special presentation about Prague and the development of our mutual links that Marcela will be giving to invited guests. It's something we've been trying to organise for a long time now, so I'm really pleased it's finally happening.
Then I've been invited to an event organised by the High Sheriff in the evening. And on Thursday I'll be off to Liverpool for work till Sunday.
And that's not to mention my dental appointment tomorrow, my appraisal at work on Thursday, the paid work I've got to do in the coming fortnight, the council committee meeting on Thursday night, the ward-based meetings and visits, letters, emails, phone calls - and little things like shopping, laundry, cooking ...
