It’s been a rough week on multiple levels

This past week alone, I was asked to moderate a parent panel for one of most incredible children’s hospitals on the planet. It’s an absolute honor and I couldn’t accept fast enough. I was also invited to a movie premiere in Atlanta, Georgia next week. VIP passes  and everything. Unfortunately, I had to decline that for logistical reasons but I would have loved to be there. Finally, I was invited to an autism summit (hence the road trip) where I may have the opportunity sit down with Temple Grandin and interview her on my podcast. That totally blows my mind and I keep asking myself, how is this my life. I’m working out the details over the weekend and I’ll share more when I can.

So yeah, work is going great. These are phenomenal opportunities and I’m no longer going to avoid these things. My kids are getting older and I need to grow the business.

Part of what’s been overwhelming me is that things are going so good and then all of a sudden, I’m locked out of my Facebook account. My 2FA is broken and I’ve been logged out of all my devices. I can’t log back in without a code and I can’t generate the code because I no longer have access to the generator. Its been an issue for a long time now but I was always able to work around it.

I had to factory restore my phone this past Monday night because it took a bad update. I lost some recent contacts and messages that hadn’t synced yet, and I was logged out of Facebook. Trying to log back in triggered a chain of events that led to me being completely locked out. I’ve been trying to resolve this all week and I’m still stuck.

I lost contact information for people I wanted to reach out to. I also have a huge project I’m working on that requires access to Facebook. There’s a lot of money tied up in this project, and I’m unable to finish it until I get things fixed. I did find someone to help me and I’ll hopefully regain access shortly but until then, I’m incredibly stressed out. We all know how much I hate playing the hurry up and wait game.

I figured I’d take advantage of the downtime this weekend to get some business related things organized. A quiet house doesn’t happen very often. On the flip side of that, as I’m writing this, I’m also thinking about going hiking as well. I could totally use the mental health break and benefit from some time in the woods. I don’t know what I’ll do but I have some time to figure it out. Maybe I can do both?

Anyway, I’ve been preoccupied and haven’t written in a little while. I wanted to get some thoughts out and maybe sleep a little better because I did.

I hope you all have a fantastic weekend…. ☺
