Frankki...
Sounds to me that you are simply acknowledging to your own self...as though you are sub-consciously confirming the days end (to self)...and if you do not do that for self, then you "feel" something is incomplete until it is done.
You are remaining in tune with yourself. And especially since you are feeling so many outside stressful influences, it may only be your way of confirming to yourself that you've made it through another day, and that you are alright.
Keep it up. Next time you glance up at self in mirror, smile at who you see, (she is, after all, a wonderful person), and wish her sweet dreams.
Take care~
