Punctuation

Hello, I was just wondering, is the punctuation of this parenthesis okay?

(after all, I was noting this down as it happened, as I have mentioned, I was in need of inspiration, and snowstorms don’t happen every day)

Thanks in advance!

Hello, were you wondering whether the punctuation of the parenthetical is okay? No. Is this supposed to be an entire sentence as an aside?

Technically it is justifiable. However, I find it rather awkward to read. I read it initially as a comma splice and then have to readjust.

Yes! Just the punctuation of the parenthetical!
