Just got home from an 8 hour training in order to help facilitate grief support groups. My brain is fried because it was so much information and we got maybe an hour total in breaks. I get more breaks than that at work most days. But, the training facilitators are very good at what they do. They had us participate in some activities that involved self reflection, which I wasn't expecting. I think that self reflection, and being an introvert in a room full of strangers for so long, is also part of why I'm tired. They showed us a really cool game for younger kids that uses Candy Land to help kids share a time they experienced a certain emotion.

Because of my low mood, it was extremely difficult to get myself out of bed for this training. I almost called in sick. I'm glad I didn't though. One day at a time.
