ALMOST NORMAL

Good morning!
Another Monday.
I’m grateful to have them, I just wish they came around at the same speed as Friday.

I went to bed late last night, I didn’t lose my energy early in the day. I’m usually wanting to go to bed at 9 pm every evening.
I just knew getting up this morning would be a challenge.
But no.
I feel like I slept well and woke with an energetic feeling.
I like this kind of coffee hangover.
That MAX I am trying, has perks I’m finding here and there.

This morning I am adding it to my bulletproof coffee. We shall see what today brings.

The birds are sure having a hey day this morning, chirping and calling out to each other. It’s nice and cool in the house this morning, but I see moisture on the kitchen window, that makes me think it’s hot and humid out.
Natural curls worst enemy!
Bright side, I don’t have to fix my hair 👸 I can wear my crown to work to hold down the flyaways 🤣🤣
They say you should dress for the job you want!

Troy and I went out for dinner last night. It was a great experience. The staff was excellent at handling the dining room and making sure they cleaned after each guest.
Every other table was marked closed. Half capacity at least.
It was quiet. You could hear the music playing. Everything seemed so calm.
We could see the smiles behind every mask.
Eyes were lit up.
The food was as good as always, I did notice the grease in the fryer was brand new, this reflected in the fried shrimp appetizer, so I’m sure a lot of scrubbing went on the past few weeks.

The Sunday drive with Troy was amazing.
I do not want a new normal.
I love my normal.
And yesterday was as close as it’s been in a while.
I look forward to seeing the full blown smile.
Teeth and all.

Work is waiting for me.
But I may sneak in one more cup of coffee.
In celebration of an average, normal weekend.

Cheers my friends
Stay safe
And keep smiling.

Lorene
