My Journey Notes:
Last night was the first night in about 5 that I’ve been able to go right back to sleep after waking up. The insomnia this week has been awful — not sure if it was relevant to what was happening in the extended family dynamic or not, but even the sleep aid wasn’t helpful.
Short term memory stuff has been a bigger issue this past week. I’m sure part of the problem is that my brain isn’t “recovering” overnight — since I haven’t been sleeping much.
Even though we may not see the blessings immediately…

3 Positives:
We made it through 8+ hours of no power or internet much better than anticipated. Recharging all extra battery packs this morning!
The lantern batteries still worked! Plenty of tea lights, fairy lights and candles at the ready. 🙂 All but one flashlight worked.
The wildfire stayed east and north of us.
