To say that today was challenging would be an understatement….
I just completed another training course, Certified Scrum Master. It was only a 2 day course this time, which for me, seemed to be much easier than those 3-4 day courses. Boy was I wrong! The same challenges I face with the longer courses didn’t magically go away because it was 2 days. I still had to maneuver through training, 2 kids in e-learning with 1 who seeks out squirrels at every opportunity. Did I mention dinner and family time had to fit into the agenda too? #AuPairPlease
The last 2 nights were spent getting “the squirrel catcher” caught up on her day’s assignments. I would check in with her as much as I could during the day, but she was adamant about being done with what she was supposed to be doing. With no time to trust AND verify, I trusted. Well, jokes on me! She miiiiiiiight have gotten a quarter of her work done by the end of the day.
I tried to do better today. I looked at her Google Classroom on every break and worked to refocus her so that she didn’t have so much to do. #Sigh
Well, lesson learned and grace given!
