Let me set the scene. I'm on an air mattress in an empty bedroom with two pillows and a single blanket. Construction going on

outside, working with the power lines making the power not on and none of my belongings have arrived yet. I moved

across the country and I feel like a big old scatterbrain. that's where we're at.

Happy Monday, everyone.

I ended up spending all yesterday in the woods,

which was so fun, but did not record a podcast, but I think it was good for my soul.

My social life thriving.

The food I'm meeting incredible.

My work life struggling.

My sleep, non-existent, my body in incredible pain. I've never woken up so consistently with

back pain. Yeah, that's where I'm at. So the highs are high and the lows aren't that low, but they're not a fun

That's where I'm at to anyone that struggles with chronic pain

My heart truly goes out to you because I haven't been sleeping well and I just like yesterday on my little

Fraud like moment with my friend my hip felt like it was out of place, my knee was hurting, my back was hurting, yeah, and I'm like, oh, thank God, this isn't typical, but as someone who uses running to, I don know pass the time run away from problems

whatever not being able to run kind of sucks I'm in a slightly cranky mood which is off for my usual equilibrium. I feel like I typically

settle on the slightly more optimistic, slightly happier side of life. But I'm

feeling a little bit negative today, a little bit of a negative Nellie if we want to

go with that term. I'm feeling a bit cranky. I woke up feeling frazzled. I had

nightmares last night. Gone I guess I need a vent session. So who knows how much

advice is going to be shed during this episode.

I just feel like a bit of a bitch right now.

Even though I've had an incredible week, I just think that lack of sleep will really do it to you.
