Back to work today, and hopefully this coming week won't be as interesting as the past one. No bizarre dressing downs, no medical crises, no ominous phone calls asking for my boss, that sort of thing!
That said, I do find myself in one of those "Day Before You Get Paid" situations today. I've got to scrimp, but only for a day. On the plus side, I've got gas in the tank to get to and from work and some no bean chili and yellow rice that I can bring for lunch. Shouldn't be too bad!
One thing that's going to be an aggravation is my energy levels. I've been unnaturally tired the past few days and the past couple of shifts. Weather is absolutely a factor, but my physical energy dipping tends to precede my psychological energy doing the same. I'm wondering if Vitamin D will help here. One of my old providers explored using vitamin D for precisely this. It makes sense. Sun's not out as often in winter, so a little extra on the side should help! Fingers crossed!

I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
