A Week In Omaha, NE, On A $42,000 Salary
by Colleen Hoover before going to sleep.8 a.m. — I wake up, make a protein shake, and get to work from my couch without getting out of my pajamas. My office is hybrid and I usually take Mondays as a work from home day. The morning consists of phone calls to school board candidates and writing about curriculum.
3:45 p.m. — Nap time. I make the short journey from my couch-desk to my bed to take a nap, which I routinely do before evening meetings. 9:32 a.m. — I grab a large pumpkin latte with oat milk from a local coffee shop on the way back. Supposedly these ingredients fit in my diet, says Google. The latte is 50% off today, score!2 p.m. — I've been working for a few hours from home when I realize I forgot to eat lunch. I eat a hard-boiled egg, half a cucumber, and a few breakfast sausages.
11:35 p.m. — I take my book into bed and read until I'm done because I can't go to sleep without reading the end. And WOW. I'm a bit disturbed going to sleep.7:45 a.m. — I wake up to people texting me about my latest story. I don't often get positive feedback on my articles so it makes me smile. I let my cats in to cuddle for a few minutes before getting up to make iced coffee, some gluten-free waffles, and sausage.
10:56 p.m. — I'm still not feeling well as I'm getting ready for bed. My body feels like it's literally on the edge of a cliff. I pop one of the klonopin my psychiatrist prescribed me before going to sleep.8:15 a.m. — When I wake up, my brain and body feel so drained and exhausted. I hate labeling a day before it even starts, but I feel like today is going to be hard.10 a.m.
