Wish I could bottle how great I’ve felt today.
It started with a full night of sleep, something that hasn’t been a thing for over a week. Woke up to being lovingly and softly touched like nothing heartbreaking had happened in the past few months. My mind didn’t allow one intrusive thought to breathe air as I was reminded I had no commitments this morning to bring a dose of panic or unwanted responsibility. Laughed a lot. Smiled genuinely even more. And felt completely refreshed and confident going into work. My favorite coworker showed up despite the schedule saying otherwise, and the entire shift was a nice mix of mellow but steady. He made me a scrumptious garlic butter smash burger before we all clocked out five minutes early. Now I’m enjoying the Alabama/Georgia game feeling more like myself than I have in over a week. …it was a good day. I’m not sure if I’ll wake up feeling so on point tomorrow, but at least I had today. It’s a win I’ll most definitely take.
