 I'm falling behind on this due to my work schedule. I recently became manager at my first job again and coincidentally my work-from-home job has gotten much busier. The last two days I've trained while working on my phone, which is annoying as holy fuck but necessary.

Today especially was looking bad. I woke up 2 hours early and thought I'd have an excellent chance at knocking my squat session out and then clocking in for work. Nope, it was phone meetings practically non-stop until the afternoon. I managed to work-up to squatting 275 over a period of 2 hours doing this, eventually putting the boss on mute to get my sets in (he takes long pauses while he looks over things). By the time that mercifully ended I was hungry and cooled down, so I just went up to eat. Then I discovered that Amazon had dropped-off my groceries out on the street 5 minutes away so I walked over and picked them up pissed-off (they refunded my order so at least it was free food and all my bags were untouched). 

Reprepped for my workout and this time managed it undisturbed, although it sucked that I woke up early and ended up getting to it at 3pm.

Yukon bar squats
Up to 455x1
Strip-sets of 405x3, 315x8, 225x8, 135x8, 45x8

During this I fielded calls from my second boss asking when I could be at the office. I intentionally rested just a little longer because he was annoying me.

Finished it there and went to the office for a meeting, and will do hamstrings and abs at night when I have a friend over. My friends are all used to me doing shit like that lol.

That was quite a mishmash of thoughts and reflections, I'm feeling like lightning after that second cup of coffee despite not enough sleep.
