It’s been nearly a month since Christmas and my body sugar levels have dropped substantially and are now halfway between “Jittery” and “Calm.” I firmly believe that corporate America pushes chocolate during Christmas because it combines two great productivity boosting ingredients: sugar and caffeine. The Christmas season was really special this year. I was off for 18 consecutive days and managed to go to sleep by midnight only 4 times. Additionally, I AMAZINGLY receive only one article of clothing this year…a coat from my mom. I didn’t get socks, shirts, pants, underwear, hat, shoes, or a belt. However, Adelle did receive some pink pajamas that have a VERY noticeable resemblance of the Ralphy’s bunny-suit in the Christmas Story.
Adelle turned 2 on December 29 and that means she was actually able to appreciate and enjoy Christmas…and enjoy it she did. She had her first, second, and 18th sugar high during the vacation..one for every day I was at home. Karen relented on curbing Adelle’s sugar intake and I proceeded to fuel the fire. By December 27, Adelle was saying, “I need a cookie to feel good.”
On another note, I’ve been looking for ways to boost my productivity now that the effects of chocolate are starting to wear off. I’ve found the book Upgrade Your Life to be an excellent productivity boost. The book is a major award I won for submitting a suggestion to www.lifehacker.com . If you don’t feel like spending $25 for the book, there is a companion website to the book at www.lifehackerbook.com and is a condensed version of the book.
