Only 2 training sessions this week, but they were both phenomenal efforts and I feel I still got better this week! It was also a full week of work so the paycheck should be nice! Also, the financial advice from last week was terrible lol, don’t listen to it. Maybe listen to the financial thoughts in this episode instead. Also, I went to the Library, got a card, and checked out a book! It already feels so much better to read on my breaks at work instead of mindless scrolling and superficial conversations.

Honestly this week was close to the perfect, ideal work and training week! 4 double shifts, and my last shift going home early after getting close to overtime. 4 training sessions where I stayed focused and consciously trained. And most importantly, making time for Adri. That is more like it! The only thing that could make it better would be even more time with Adri, and having an HVAC job for work instead of a restaurant. Soon!
