This morning after I dropped Nicholas off at school, I cried for two hours because I was nervous for him. But he texted me at lunch time and told me he was having fun.

being a normal girl, once a month i turn into this grumpy, chocolate munching, meat craving, pms-alien-godzilla-monster thingy that totally act like a bitch. (and if anybody said that PMS is a myth.. go ahead and imagine having yourself headache, a very uncomfortable tummy cramps, back pain, and all that happened for a couple of days. i'd be surprised if with all that jazz you are not feeling tired and grumpy.) and yes, sometimes my boyfriend has to be extra extra patient, because i would snap at him for just a tiny mistake he did. (and i am not sure why but usually he did something foolish exactly on the Godzilla days). but he has a higher level of patience than i do, which something that i really need to learn. :) 

oh and sometimes he'll ask me out to eat and fulfill my crazy cravings! isn't he such a sweetiebear? :)

UGH!

Skyping with the hubs ( he is army- in Korea) Anyway... he gets a little grumpy with me and wonders why I'm suddenly Bitch-Monster-From-Hell oh I don't know... call it PMS! Oh that's not a good enough excuse... well then...

OH HOW I WISH I COULD GIVE HIM MY UTERUS FOR ONE MONTH SO HE MAY SUFFER THE TORMENT OF ENDOMETRIOSIS!

Who bets that  at the end of that month he would wish he was dead? *raises hand*

A Light Breakfast & Other Tidbits

This morning I am having two pieces of millet chia bread (Udi’s) with a bit of honey(yum yum yum)with some orange juice.

Snacks will be fresh plums or perhaps an apple.

Lunch will most likely be a turkey wrap using a gluten free/soy free / corn free tortilla. Topped with lots of greens, onions, etc.

I am thinking fish for dinner with some sort of steamed veggie.

Today I’m feeling a bit blah from sleep. I find as PMS goes on,my sleep pattern suffers. Need to nip this in the butt! Maybe instead of my electronics turn off one hour before sleep I should do two hours to see if it helps during this time of bouts of insomnia and restless sleep.

I do have to say that this time around I’m actively seeking ways to alleviate some of my issues before they take over my life. One way is keeping active. Now to control the headaches. There may or may not be something I can do for those afternoon headaches. We shall see….

Rampant PMS

Out of all the things about endometriosis I’m pretty sure I hate PMS the most ten days before my menses and I become a raging lunatic!

How is this even fair? I’m sick of the mood swings, bloating from hell, breasts so sore I can barely stand a t shirt let alone a bra! The pain that radiates from the right side sending me into the fetal position- to name a few. I’m sure no more details are needed. You ladies out there can sympathize. Especially those with endo.

I have to keep positive though and hope as weeks go by the endo diet will help even out the hormonal rampages I seem to get once a month.

I need a good book, meditation, and some spiritual food to even myself back out. I went as far as deactivating my Facebook today just to give myself a break. Sadly I get I hate Homosapiens daily during PMS. All the anger and crazy ass tears just need to take a chill pill.

I need some zen. Ladies let me know if you have some serious insane PMS and how you deal with it?

Does it ever feel never ending? I hate it! Ten days is a long time to suffer the PMS monster!

So the PMS Monster has taken my body hostage the past 4 days

And I've eaten nothing but, ice cream, Salt & Vinegar chips, pizza, and drank root beer. I've got no motivation to do anything except sit on my butt mindlessly eating and watching Desperate Housewives.

Like this is a full on hostile takeover the likes of which I haven't seen since high school.

Normally, I'd be cool with one day, but this has dragged on for four days.

It's getting a little ridiculous up in here.

I'm looking up all these fancy pasta recipes for dinner tonight.

Watch me just go home and make boxed mash potatoes or eat graham crackers with peanut butter on the kitchen floor instead.
