#stress mode

You know when you take that time out to "rest" but you still end up feeling like you have worked for an entire day and you think back to the days when you could take a day or two off and feel rejuvenated?

Chronic stress is to blame. We spent all week working, now, we have to catch up on everything that we put off during that time. Not to mention the time we spend scrolling. Even though you may be sitting still while scrolling, it takes your brain an immense amount of energy to process everything coming from that screen.

Put it all down and go for a walk now and again. Your mind and body will appreciate that much more than it appreciates staring at a screen or working all day.

I love when I’m trying to gets good nights sleep before something stressful to next day, but my brain has already shifted into Stress Mode™️ and I subsequently wake up periodically in the night just absolutely riddled with adrenaline. Anyways that is why I’m on tumblr at 4:23am

Update!

It’s been a hectic week! So much to do, and no time! 

I officially became an Honorary Auntie/Godmother of a beautiful baby boy this past Saturday. He was a premie and his mommy wasn’t doing to well after the birth, so I spent the entire weekend living out of a backpack at the hospital and taking care of my bestest friend in the whole wide world. They are both much better now and they get to come home tomorrow! Yay! Since he’s been in the NICU, I haven’t been able to see him in person yet. Cant wait to get to hold him in my arms!

I’ll also be taking my teacher certification test so that I can teach middle school and high school English. It’s this Saturday. I have barely studied. I’ll be throwing punches and praying to God I actually land a few. Last time I didn’t do so bad, and I spent the entire week preceding it playing Plants vs Zombies. Hopefully I don’t fail horribly.

I also have Poetry Week at school and nothing is ready yet! I have one week to get it all under control! I am freaking out!

I may be AWOL for a while but know that it’s only because I’m busting my ass off…either that or I’m curled up in a dark corner crying and whispering to myself “It’ll be okay, everything will be okay.
