Dear Log: Today is day 6 without coffee. There have been zero casualties thus far. Yesterday, the brain fog was at 20%. Moods have stabilized, and there was no crash in my energy. If yesterday was my new baseline, I can get used to it. The only issue is… the BMs are not the same. I have to compensate with a lot of fiber and probiotics.

Yesterday was special. The three of us were supposed to do one-on-ones, but my kid cancelled. This worked out because our Easter hamper delivery was late. I drove around to everyone and dropped those off. It was nice to see their caregivers’ faces light up when they saw what was inside. It was nice to see their families as well. Some of their little siblings give me hugs. Our new participant lives in a rough neighborhood. I got shot in the neck… with a Nerf gun by his little brother lol. This inspired me to buy a bunch of Nerf guns so we can book days and locations to have a Nerf gun fight.

The Executive Director and her Assistant came by the office on Wednesday. Everyone was in a Health and Safety meeting, so they came and introduced themselves to me. Then I helped them with some planning. We have two people moving into the office, and they gave me free rein over decluttering the office spaces. Also, to help facilitate something else for them. So I have their trust? This was a relief because of the email correspondence between them that I had at the beginning of March. Which was subsequently brought up multiple times with HR.

I have a five-day weekend. My roommate is only crashing three of those days. Saturday, I will be at my mother’s for Easter. My sister is driving in from Brandon with her daughter. I can’t wait to see them. My niece is 1.5 years old. We’re going to have so much. I am picking up my grandmother and uncle. I have to make a pit stop at the office with them in the car. I have to pick up and drop off the last Easter hamper.

Anyway, my green tea hit. Off to the gym now, I guess. The only plan I have today is to vote early. Also, to play around in the kitchen. I bought a bunch of flours so I am going to try and make some breads. Chickpea, finger millet, arrowroot, & buckwheat flour as wheat and I are not friends anymore.
