12/7/21 It’s Tuesday. Snoozed alarm clock at 6:45 am and 7:15 am. Woke up at 7:30 am to get ready for work. Usually would wait until 7:45 am to wake up, but on period days, would wake up 15 minutes earlier to use the restroom. Growing up, would feel self-conscious going out in public during period days with the off chance of leaking and spotting on pants or someone will smell the stench. Always feel the need to conceal. Would dread using public restrooms. Never know what would walk into — a clogged or un-flushed toilet. With working from home, don’t have to feel that or conceal and can use own restroom.
Had a slow start. Overwhelmed by what needs to do complete for the project. Had a brain fart or 2 and had to retrace steps to be reminded what was about to do. Been also having random dry cough (but not today and not daily) since last week, but would just only last for a few seconds. Knock on wood it’s not you know what. Don’t have fever though so probably not. Stayed logged on to work an extra 2 hours, because got the hang of it and just want to finish and have one less thing to worry about.
Have been playing the Win Starbucks for Life: 2021 Holiday almost every day since early December using no purchase necessary method. So far didn’t win anything. Last season won a $5 Starbucks gift card, some stars, and a coffee cup sleeve.
