I worked 21 hours yesterday into this morning 😴 so my sleep patterns are super messed up especially after my decision to get up early on Thursday to see the eclipse. 🌙The 5 am eclipse made me end up getting like 4 hours of sleep broken into two hour time periods before working 21 hours which was just awful. These late night legislative sessions are tough as I get older 👴🏼. I totally get why people retire early in my industry.

This afternoon I have my counselor appointment. 👨🏻‍⚕️I did my homework, I’m prepared. I’m learning a lot, taking action steps to make my life better. I’m not really sure how beneficial this all is but you don’t have to totally nuts 🤪 to benefit from some talk therapy – the pandemic has been tough – I’m turning 40 and I need to reevaluate a lot of things in my life especially as I’m now a mid level professional with a good salary. Plus I really need to spend more time discussing my pyromania 🔥 and bouncing off ideas on how to make my future better. I want to build on my successes and become a stronger individual. 💪🏻
