I'm spending a few minutes typing in my Journal before picking up Sarah for work. It's 20:40, not whatever it says down there... let me fix that. Fixed. Okay so, today was a day where I got some decent sleep, took a headache'd Sarah into work and now she is leaving work about 6 hours early. That's okay. She needs to feel better so she can be happy with her work. But it doesn't seem like the needle is moving that way. At least to me, she keeps getting more and more upset with work. Sep, Oct Nov, Dec, Jan in their entire sum. Plus a bit of Feb but not much, that's what she has till her program is over. I know she can do it. But I sure hope she catches a break at some point. This is more like something I'd imagine being part of a private journal. Since I'm directly reflecting not on myself but on someone else, not that I think that she will mind and heck, before we know it, it will all be over.

I'm personally withering away, wanting to work but also being unable to do so because of previous planning. I need to stop doing that. Planning. But it's how things happen. I wanted to go to Asia, so here I go. Thailand, somewhere I've really not thought about much. One of my friends did European Bartending school there, the food is good. That's where my knowledge stops.

Okay it's 20:45. Time to head to the car. Sarah should be down in a few minutes. I guess I could wait and keep blathering. I want to work, but I don't need to yet still. I just need to relax and support. I think that might be where my anxious nature really develops. Focusing beyond what I can solve. What I'm reminded of in this moment, of all things, the serenity prayer. I can't just type it out I don't think, but it's like, higher power, grant me the grace to deal with things I cannot change and the power to change the things I can change and the wisdom to know the difference. Anyway, car time now.

I went over to the benches for the bus stop, thinking that I would intercept her on the way out. But it took longer than I expected and, as expected of a bus stop, a bus arrived. So now I am in the car proper waiting. She won't know where the car is so I'll send a text, but it's more likely that she will call me when she is out here. I'll put on my book. I'm listening to Sex at Dawn for the 2nd time, with a little less enjoyment this time but still a great book, I recommended it to a friend so I figured I should listen to it also, since last I did it was 2021. Sarah has arrived!

I'll write more another time. Peace out!

Ah, that time came pretty soon, 21:34 to be clock-wise. I put on our shared audio book The Blade Itself which was suggested to me by a friend while I was busy with the move. She is almost caught up to the point I reached while I was listening to it solo. We are heading to Cracker Barrel to give Sarah a bit of joy in her evening since she isn't feeling well. Headache couldn't be too bad if she wants to go out, so that's good. She took some meds and then asked if I was still up for the idea, which I had planted upon picking her up.

Anyway, we will be there so soon, it's already time to put the laptop away I feel. I need to remember it is here in the car tho! I left it when we went inside for her to change and get some meds.
