I hear you. Energy, motivation and productivity are all low here. Not sure there's enough caffeine in the world to counteract that, but I'm going to give it a try.

It's funny, I thought I'd hit it today feeling fired up and ready to go. But instead I feel like I'm moving in slow motion. Thankfully there's nothing really critical happening, so I'm able to slowly warm up and get back into the swing of things.

I totally get that—first days back are always rough and I'm feeling it too. It’s like my brain is still on vacation mode. The struggle is real! Hopefully the productivity picks up as the week goes on, but no shame in taking it slow today.

Nobody really seems super up and ready to go today. Thankfully the day is coming to an end now. Always takes me a while before I really feel back into the swing of things after a long break. How long do you need before you feel really back and ready to work like normal?

I’m coming back from parental leave in a few days, scared I won’t remember my own name

Yeaaaa that is what it was like in my office too. Its always hard having time off and then getting back into the swing of things. I don't know about you all but I got used to sleeping in and was struggling to get up early every day this week. It was rough.
