Week 33

 So, I went back to work last week. That's a thing.

 Actually it wasn't too bad. I didn't managed to do 4 hours a day, every day, though. Most days I burned out after 2, but managed to keep going by laying down with my work laptop and doing something light. One day, I just had to stop after 2 hours and go to bed. Meetings are really, REALLY draining. Still, on the whole, my manager and I are calling it a success. HR are still being a--holes, but that's another story.

 The weekend was weird because I've gotten used to basically doing the same thing every day. So, I spent some of Saturday morning thinking I ought to go to work. I spent a brief moment on Sunday afternoon stressing about work until I realized that that I appear to have an old habit of stressing about work on Sunday's. Literally nothing at work to stress about anyway, so once I realized what I was doing I was able to work on shutting it down. (I'm getting better at that, which is good.)

 Finally, I evidently picked a good week to come back because we got today (Monday, Presidents Day) off... so my first week ended in a three day weekend. 

 On the whole, not bad. A lot more draining that I'd hoped but still not bad. I continue to take things one day at a time, so we'll see how next week goes.
