This weekend has been a mixed bag.

This weekend has been a mixed bag.  I spent too much time being so stressed out over everything that I needed to do that I didn't do anything, which sucked.  That's a very negative loop to be stuck in.  🙁  Making things worse - I took my Methotrexate on Thursday which makes me really tired and brain-foggy so basically nothing got done on Thursday or Friday.  I did very little homework on Saturday, but made a lot of progress on my Trig today (Sunday), even though I had to stop for a nap.  I didn't touch Biology at all, but I did work on History since I have a test coming up Tuesday.

Highlight of the weekend was seeing some friends that don't live close to me anymore.  Low point of the weekend was that one of our parakeets died today despite all of my efforts to nurse her and make her better.  Rest in Peace, Sky.  ❤

I promised Booka a bath since he's chewed up a raw spot above his tail despite his Prednisone.  So I'm about to get off here, wash a dog, then wash myself, and call it a night.  I've got an ass-ton of notifications piled up again, but I can't check them all tonight.  Maybe tomorrow.  I hope the weekend went a little easier on y'all.

Currently re-evaluating my life choices over here.

Currently re-evaluating my life choices over here.  I'm home from work early so I can get to the millions of homeworks I have.  I'm tired - as I have been from the very shitty start of this stupid week.  All I want to do is eat chocolate truffles and nap.  And maybe even shower and cry.  I guess it doesn't matter at this point.

For some crazy reason all of my friends think I can do all the things and while I appreciate that I legit feel like I am in over my head this semester.  Trig is hard-ish - at least the amount of work I have to put in is a lot.  Biology is insane - the class after the test I took 6 pages of new notes and while it's not ALL foreign it's stuff that's also gonna take some effort to remember.  I also have History, which isn't usually bad, but with two hard classes everything feels like too much right now.

Since dropping anything isn't an option yet I feel like if I have to stay in until 60% of the semester is over I'd rather just get it over with and not have to backtrack any.  If I come out with two B's I'll still have my 3.5, but I was hoping to save B's for when things are REALLY harder.  I don't know.

I'm just really not happy at the moment.  I have like zero free time.  I can't do anything really fun like even paint my nails or make jewelry or hang with the animals.  I feel like I haven't ACTUALLY spent time with Shaun in over a year.  🙁  I do see Shadow because he's here all the time, but I've been leaning on him harder than usual for help around the house.

All I can say is that this school stuff had better be worth it one day.  I don't even know what I will do if this doesn't pay off.

Anyway.  I have to go do something productive now.  As usual.  🙁

I feel surprisingly ok...

I feel surprisingly ok considering how little sleep I got. Thank goodness Shadow had a delay because there is no way I would have woken up without him making noise just now. Looked at my phone and it said the alarm was going off, but it wasn't making a sound! Now I have to hustle.

Headache all day turned migraine all night.

Blegh.  Headache all day turned migraine all night.  I took some Excedrin and my head is finally starting to let up, but now I'm not able to sleep even though I am exhausted... I guess because of the caffeine in the Excedrin.  And I have class in the morning.  Was kind of hoping I'd get a weather delay because it's Biology and I don't need to miss that if class meets.

This week is trying to kill me.  🙁

Bald

Just went all "2007 Britney" on my head.  Well... not exactly.  I don't need any particular level of stress to make me want my life easier by not having to deal with hair.  😂  Shaun was trimming it for me and I just couldn't get it short enough.  I haven't felt like myself with hair in a long time.  I think bald is just my thing right now - especially with everything else I have to take care of.  Ain't nobody got time for that!

I haven't checked my notifications in 2 days...

I haven't checked my notifications in 2 days due to exhaustion.  To anyone that I've ignored - I'm working on it now!

I was awake at like 3 am on Monday morning.  I was in my bed - just unable to sleep.  🙁  I think I was too stressed over that test.  Monday was my long day - left the house at 9 am; got home after 10 pm.  Came home, went to Wal-Mart, did some house stuff, and died.  Not really, but dang.  I felt like I could sleep and never wake up.

Got up this morning unhappily.  I wanted to sleep for another few hours.  Made it through school, tutoring, and work with a headache that Ibuprofen wouldn't kick.  Now I'm home and so tired that I will not be moving from my couch until I drag myself to my bed.  Shadow's getting to go to school 2 hours late and I'm jealous.

Anyway.  Highlight of my day:  I got my new animal Bundle Monster plates and I'm super pumped.  There is a Quokka on one!!!  I didn't catch that the first time I saw them, but I noticed when I unwrapped them today.  There is also an Emu and a bunch of other super cool animals.  I can't wait to use them.  Since my brain is tired and I'm head-ache-y I might try my hand at painting my nails.  I feel like a mani with these deserves more time and thought than I can give it tonight, but I'm excited and I want to do something fun.  We'll see if I actually have the energy.  😂

I hope the week is going a little easier on y'all than it is on me.  ❤
