Yesterday felt like a brain drain. I fell asleep on the couch before doing the dishes and just felt out of sorts even as I went to bed. Yet today, I woke up with about 15 minutes before Chad arrived and felt pretty good. Swimming was a delight after having not done it for so long, and I even managed to get out and run for a bit as well which was a double bonus.
All in all, the new job has been delightful. I was able to help Emma by watching the boys while she took Jane up to gymnastics, and I was able to honestly spend time with the boys up in their room after Silas woke up as well. The next challenge will be actually getting some things done at work, which I haven't done a great job with yet.
While I was able to help Emma, it came at a cost of being slightly distracted all day. I'm not sure I communicated this very well to Emma, and so I may have set an unreasonable expectation which may come back to me eventually. All that said, it was a good day and I feel I did a pretty good job keeping most of my vices in check. Except for Skittles after Emma went to bed. Sigh.
