Day two of three

am I being lazy? 


I worked four straight days. I never work four and rarely work three straight. I’m exhausted. Yesterday I slept till noon but still only had ten hours which is normal. 


But today I slept till one thirty and that was 13 hours. Probably too much but I slept straight through without waking up. Most days I only get 8ish so I’m guesssing I was just lacking sleep. Tomorrow I’ll try not to sleep so much. 


Last week totaled 32 work hours which is minimum full time but I only asked for 24 hours from my boss. I’m just pooped and extra tired today.

In the past, I usually had the same issue. Do you have any problems eating or find yourself binge watching a show? Somethings after a stressful few days I deal with a small bout of depression. Too much sleep, no appetite, and binge watching are things I always try to remain of aware of.

Well, my appetite hasn’t been beat lately but that’s nothing new. I’m afraid to eat some food because I will Gaga after a few bites. Other foods I just don’t eat because they will get stuck in my braces. I just ordered some autumn squash soup and a strawberry smoothie from Panera.

Sounds like you have a right to be a little bit tired. You had a busy holiday season, you went through the loss of your Nana, and now your working double the norm. A few extra hours sleep won't hurt you, just try not to make it the norm.

Take care,

I think the holidays can be extra busy and sometimes stressful for people ….. Your body told you that you needed some extra rest.... I'm glad that you got it ….xo

    Some things we don't talk about, we breathe them... Some things cannot be explained, but rather experienced. Some of the most healing moments arise when given the memory, acknowledging the love.One cannot go back in time; we move forward, and we carry the love we shared. No one but ourselves has the power to do so, or the permission to do so, but ourselves.So live life with your faith and...
