    Laura and I talked last night and determined that she needed to focus on self care for today. In the end, she did everything but self care and she had a very hard day as far as her mental health was concerned. I encouraged her to go for simple

    Laura had concluded they she needs to be downstairs. This means that she will not move home until I take my days off next week (it’ll be Wednesday the 7th) and we will stay by reading almost all the rooms. It will likely be good but I know what I will be doing for four…

    Laura was excited to finish the conversation that we started too late last night. While I was at Isaac’s soccer game she made arrangements for Savannah to watch the kids so that she and I could start earlier and finish the conversation.

    I realized today that I have no current interest in working at Dominion Energy (as the name became today) going forward. That could potentially change (by me finding a better work situation within the company) but that’s how I feel in my present position. Unless I get a severance option I’ll hang around for at…
