I slept in this morning. Sunday is low demand day. Recovery for the week day. I did a half mile walk to get the mail from yesterday. My license arrived, so I’ve got that in hand now. I should apply for a passport book soon. All I was waiting for was to get the license, and the pre-check completed.
Many dreams last night. One seemed familiar, like I’d had it before. I was driving a car through a building, tearing things up, and going up, and up, and up. It felt a bit like playing a video game. Lots of family in the dreams, often in odd contexts. My mom was there again, and my nieces, though they were younger. Cousins and aunts and my brother. Adventures of all kinds.
I intentionally didn’t do very much today. I watched TV and read and played video games. Things that allow my brain to relax and not focus on telling scary stories about the future. I am a bit nervous about my probation officer meeting on Wednesday. About starting training for my new hire tomorrow. There’s going to be a lot to do at work this week, though things should calm down a bit for me the week after because of how the training plan is set up.
I didn’t get my exercises done until after 8, but I got them done before my 9 pm bedtime alarm. Along with ten minutes of paced breathing staff spinning.
There was a fierce storm today. It blew through with howling winds and driving rain. And then left again. Feels like my emotions. Always, I’m missing him, but sometimes those winds blow more fiercely through my heart.
I know I can do this, because I’m doing this.
I’ve got to start thinking about getting my taxes done. It will be a relief to get them done, I just need to do it. Need to figure out what Ambrose was doing and try to do that. I should get them done before I got to South Carolina. Either that or get an extension before I go. From what I’ve read, I’ll be able to file as married for another three years. After that, I should probably change my withholdings.
