Reviewing and planning runs through the brain non-stop but I will not have to plan so much once I have truly learnt everything. Lying in bed thinking that I must ring so-and-so and what was that lock combination again? Ha ha! Makes me grin fo some reason. There is no need for this ol' brain to think about it cos it's all written down at work. And of course I want to do EVERYTHING properly to prove I can truly do this. Work has already rang and booked me for extra work so I must be doing a good job right?
Thanks for being so excited with me!

Having started many new, exciting jobs in my lifetime (before it dawned on me that "work" was highly over-rated ) I remember that I devoted perhaps 90-100% of my brain power and at least 70% of my physical energy to those jobs my first month or so on the job. Then, as time passed, I realized that so many of the routine tasks became......well, routine, and less brain power was necessary. It was normal for me to be exhausted until I settled into the job and identified the routines that didn't require 100% all the time. It will get easier.
To be perfectly honest, it is wonderful to see that you love your new job so much and we all hope for you that it continues to be just as rewarding as you become more seasoned and comfortable.
