Anxiety

 Tonight I will turn on a meditation to listen to for sleep and relaxation.  This is not because I don't think I will be able to sleep, but my anxiety level is high.  I tend to get noxiously sarcastic when I am anxious enough and then the filters are down.  Going back to work with a pandemic and suddenly being with so many people inside seems to be a problem for me.  I envy those people who are able to hide their anxiety so well.  Although, bottling it up isn't good either.  So, I'm working on productive ways to relieve the anxiety.

For most of the past week I have been doing a lot of pacing and jogging in place to get my 10,000 a day step count.  For various reasons, and now being at work, I have been outside less most days.  The result of the pacing and all is that today is day 21 in a row that I have been able to maintain at least 10,000 steps.  That is my happy for today.  Since exercise is one of the things that can help lower stress, I will hopefully find a new back to work routine that will include more exercise of some kind.

Stay safe and relax.
