Putting it Behind

Falling asleep has been coming to me very easily lately.  Staying asleep has not.  This morning I awoke around 4:20 AM, about 40 minutes before my alarm went off.  This meant that I got to work nice and early, but I am getting ahead of myself.  Before I was ready to leave for work Gideon and Z woke up specifically to wish me well today and -bonus- they made me a scrambled egg and cheese wrap for breakfast.  How thoughtful is that?  So my first happy of the day was pretty early.  Other happy things include:

• Coworkers are awesome people and gave me going away gifts.  
• A student that I am with often made me a card.
• Rockets flew far and high today.
• The temperature today was in the mid 50's and pleasant.
• My family made me a cinnamon spice cake to celebrate leaving my job.
• For some reason, that I can't quite explain, I am feeling really good about being unemployed.  This should not be a normal thing and I expect stress about not working to set in soon.  I hope to ride this feeling for a little bit though.  
• The governor order a statewide mask mandate.  It is unfortunate that this is needed, but I am thankful that the governor saw how important it is to have this since the covid numbers are increasing so much as we enter into the holiday season.
• Getting to play Minecraft tonight for a little bit.

Tonight's sunset.

Celebratory cinnamon spice cake.

They even put on a candle on top!

New cup.
Seems so fitting.
