Last week was a wash. Literally.
I washed up on the shores of Belize, Isla Roatan, and Cozumel on a cruise ship excursion with my family, and two other families for a week. Yeah. Hate that.
The picture of me there is on the beach at Passion Island North of Cozumel. ‘An afternoon that I kinda remember (open bars are dangerous).
While I was gone, I “sandbagged” 5 blog articles, and scheduled their posting each day so there would be some semblance that all was as it should be at Camp CourVO. I don’t like to FaceBook or Tweet while I’m away. Robbers are savvy, too…and it wouldn’t take much to put our house on the map while we were gone.
Below is a video I put together of some of the best moments of our cruise, but that’s not really why I’m blogging today.
POST-VACATION BLUES
Like clockwork, auditions and VO opportunities tend to pile-up the moment you walk out the door. Immediately catching up to those loose ends is a priority. I also returned to 1875 emails in my primary account. I haven’t even looked at the other two accounts yet.
Do I feel overwhelmed? You betcha!
Will I hit a brick wall of post vay-k depression?…Mmmmm….likely.
Can I possibly recover one week’s worth of Social Media presence in the next week?
Do I want to?
Is it worth it?
TWO VO RULES TO LIVE BY
1) You can’t do it all. Not in a day. Not in a year. There will never be enough time.
2) Check-off your To-Do list by answering the following question: Did I make progress today?
(Honorable mention: force yourself into a rewarding distraction when you feel it’s all too much — even a small diversion is worth it)
So, this week I’m back at it. Much to do…but it’ll get done. Thanks for reading this far, now enjoy the video below.
