✅ pulled an all nighter from 4pm to 7am and actually completed everything in the project with the hours given
✅ packed everything up and returned it all to the office
✅ actually had a good one on one reconciliatory chat with the boss who owned up to being severely burnt out and dropping the ball with staff - seriously planning to accelerate his retirement and handing over of the business
✅ still made it to the Christmas thing and actually enjoyed it - even won $50 - and had many long goodbyes, everything ending on a good note
✅ jammed in some last minute heavy grocery shopping on the way home despite insane traffic, and then dropped the car off elsewhere with 5 min to spare
✅ grabbed some brisling sardines on the way back for a simple repast of rice and fish
✅ almost caught up on messages, finally sinking into the couch; fully awake and engaged for 34 hours and counting...
At long last, it is all done. And I am proud of myself for finally arriving here. I'm so happy that the slate is clean and I made it... Bring on the next chapter in the new year!!!
But for now, an extremely well deserved sleep.
so many hugs and kisses
