Do you ever have one of those days?

Do you ever have one of those days?
3 deadlines today:
1 conference proposal
1 funding proposal
1 project deliverable reporMeeting proposal
Funding proposal
(6 mins before the deadline, but it's still
)one more to go...

@Ruth_Mottram Yes. Not so much any more - being self employed has its advantages - but it still happens.
I wonder, at such times, if there's not some way we can arrange things so that not everything is due on the last day of a month, or the last month of the year. Something simple like using a random number generator to pick deadlines within a specified window, for example.
-
@Ruth_Mottram You can probably tell from this suggestion that I should generally be kept a thousand miles away from organising anything important.
-
@micefearboggis Or maybe, the reverse! I liek this suggestion...

@Ruth_Mottram @micefearboggis We had 30 (thirty!) reports to send by tomorrow evening. We had sent 5 of the easier ones earlier in the month. The remaining ones i assigned 5 per day throughout this final week. Luckily the project partners are
and have been delivering. One more day to go!Ah, and past me thought it would be great if I brought a poster to that conference next week

@lavergnetho @Ruth_Mottram @micefearboggis *Thirty* ?!!
What on earth is the project? -
not "what on Earth" but "what in Space!"
We are developing the prototype ground processor for the #CIMR
️ mission (>= 2029).All 20+ Polar Oceans products (including #SeaIce variables) and Global Land products (Soil Moisture, Snow, etc...) for the CIMR mission need documenting. Plus the documents to describe file formats, the software architecture, the future validation campaign
, etc...This is our Year 1 review with ESA, so many of the docs are still draft.
-
On that note. I have been pondering if having an account for the CIMR mission on #Mastodon would be of interest.
We could share news about the mission, news papers, anything relevant for the preparation, etc...
Thoughts @Ruth_Mottram @phil_browne @PolarBremen @seaice @revesdespace @wikkit and others?
I don't want to have it on X/Twitter. But I am not sure there will be enough interest here.
