I am so tired it hurts. I refuse to nap after my shifts because that will create a cycle of being tired at work. I would rather have energy there. I’m not used to these work hours yet. I am trying to restructure my sleep schedule so that I am not exhausted after my shift. It is done at 2:30 pm. I get up at 4:15 am, mind you I am awake before my alarm goes off. I want to utilize that time to go to the gym in the near future. Once the washrooms are renovated, I won’t have to worry about where I duece at work. They look almost done. I have to go outside to use a trailer that they popped up there for customers. I hate it.

I am slowly warming up to my new team. Somebody stole my hat and knee pads from my work bag. It’s not my property so whatever. My supervisor is really really impressed with me. I feel like a toddler that gets praise for everything. She is spread so thin because of how short-staffed her team is. I really did come at the right time. I think she is nervous that I will leave. One of her hires did just that today. She asked me if there was anything I needed or anything I wanted to learn. Pandering? Little old me? She told me that she is throwing me on off-shelf at the end of the month. It’s go time boys. I’m intimidated about it but I will be fine. I’ll make it work. It’s the second-largest role on the team and I only did it twice right before I transferred.

I haven’t had the energy to exercise but rest days count, right? I don’t drink coffee anymore so I don’t have that shortcut. Well, I drink mushroom coffee in the morning. It doesn’t suppress my appetite, it activates it actually. I eat so much food. I can’t imagine what that volume of food would look like if I was counting macros to bulk. I did gain 3 more pounds. 180 is my new goal weight.

The silica supplement with biotin must have been what my body needed. My thumb nails were concaved a bit. They had been for a year now and since I started taking that supplement it has been growing out. Pretty fast I must add. My hair and nails grow very fast. My metabolism is sky-high.

My second attempt at making a gel out of my sea moss was a bust. It’s still edible. I just add it to my smoothies anyway. It has almost every single micronutrient. I bought Celtic salt today. I will literally just be putting a couple of grains on my tongue every morning. I use Himalayan salt for cooking. When I do cook which is next to never these days. These months more like.

I am starting to psych myself out for that drive to Brandon this weekend. I don’t trust my car. I never trust my car. It’s just a two-hour drive. I am visiting my sister and meeting my niece. I haven’t met my niece yet. She is a month old now. I invited Bev… I don’t know what to expect on this little adventure. I don’t want to back out.

They play a different playlist at the location I transferred to. They play a lot of sad songs.

I have to meal prep for the next two days of work and cook supper. I should get on it. I would rather fall asleep. I finally bought a new oscillating fan yesterday. Once I felt the first breeze on my face when I laid down I got a little emotional. The white noise I missed but I didn’t know I missed that breeze. Anyway, on with it then.
