I’m feeling a lot of energy drain from US politics and news, as well as teaching my class. I started teaching night classes the semester before COVID-19 hit, and summers aside, I haven’t taken a break since. I have a full time day job, so that’s no joke. I finally prioritized myself and rescheduled my trip to Japan, which I was supposed to leave for the week everyone got sent home. It meant taking a semester off though this fall. It’s the right decision, but I’m basically just trying to survive the semester at this point. My day job has a lot going on too.

Just gotta be patient with myself, get rest, hopefully get some exercise after that rest, and wrest myself out of this energy hole I’ve dug myself into. I am proud of myself for keeping the kitchen clean, and did a deep clean and vacuum of the living room yesterday. It feels much nicer in here now. :)
