False dawn...



Okay so that last post was a bit premature...

Two weeks on I think I am finally emerging from the brain fog that accompanied my strange cold-flu hybrid affliction - which hubbie has suggested 'may' have been swine flu.

Have continued to work in the interim as time has been running rapidly out on my sabbatical, but haven't had the energy to blog at the end of each working day.

Usual work activities ongoing. My whiteboard now has 12 priority projects on it, with the aim to cycle through them in order:

  • Developing a self management behaviour change intervention in PCOS
  • Qualitative study of healthcare experiences
  • Expert Patient intervention for PCOS
  • Psychology and disaster management project
  • Ryder Cheshire Volunteers research
  • Developing a decision support aid
  • The motivational interviewing courses at Coventry
Plus several new 'mystery' collaborations, which relate to students' research skills development, my volunteer tutoring for the Expert Patient Programme, children's health and a piece of technology relating to subfertility.

Oh and then there's the small matter of an imminent new term with normal teaching duties (complete with much reduced turnaround times for marking). Looks like I'm going to be busy...
