Do you start to sometimes forget what you need to say in your native language and you feel spaced out/ find it harder to think?

My best friend at work is Bolivian and she is on my team. As a joke a little while back I said to her I wanted to learn Spanglish rather than the whole language. The bit of Spanish I knew prior was my starting point. We start the mornings talking in basic Spanglish and by the end of the day we end up mostly speaking in Spanish. Even though my Spanish is poor sometimes I find it hard to switch back to English if someone emails me asking a question and I find it is taking me a minute to think when talking English after speaking in Spanish.

I’m probably speaking 20 hrs a week during work. I don’t know if it’s because its because my brain isn’t used to processing two languages on the go or I’m just not concentrating properly.
