Georgie let me sleep until 5am before wanting to go out! So, I missed stars.
I understand Jeff. I put the same kind of pressure on myself, always have. I've not the knack to give myself a break. I'm going through a bit of that now with State Farm. In my head, it's a part time job for extra cash and not a career; but, I definitely have not let go of wanting to master all of the information and nuances quickly. (Then I ask myself if I'm getting too involved.) Oh, well ...
I definitely understand the drive to excel. I suffer from a level of that myself. With MyJeff, I just need to serve as a balance-minder to bring him back to reality before he gets wound up too tense over his own unrealistic expectations of himself and risks self-sabotage.

It took me a while to settle into my new job. Chris reckons one has to give it at least three months.
I was clock-watching most of the night. I am starting to have to turn lights on when I go downstairs first thing.

Sorry to read that you had such broken sleep. I hope tonight allows you better rest.
