It is just before midnight. Before going to bed, I must feed Storm.

Storm is a little lamb that lost her mother during her birth. She is still bottle feeding but does sleep through the night afterwards. She sleeps in the bedroom with my daughter.

Now that I have put her to bed, it is time for me to turn in for the night. Worst part about going to bed this late is that it will take me 30 minutes to an hour to fall asleep.

Well. I guess I jinxed myself. I’m seeing the clock at 0100. However, I did say that it would take me about an hour to fall asleep. The main issue I was having was turning off my mind.

I think I saw the clock at 0400. When the alarm clock sounded, it was 0630. I dislike going to work without getting enough sleep. But, I’m going. It’s Thursday and I’m going to have a ‘skeleton crew’ today. Our week begins on a Friday and ends on a Thursday.

My daughter will take care of Storm today while I’m at work.

It is 0715 and time for me to leave for the office. I arrived at the
