adulting is such a drag
Oof, yesterday turned out to be A Day, almost entirely due to my apparently not taking care of myself so I’m coming here to write a sternly worded letter to my brain, which I’ll
Dearest Gentle Readers/neurons/synapses,
It has come to my attention that a small, but stubborn, portion of you are under the impression that you can tough out less than adequate sleep/hydration/nutrition, just because 'it’s boring' and 'not that big of a deal anyway.'
::clears throat pointedly::
Given the thoroughly meh day we lived through yesterday, with the headache that just wouldn’t go away, the general listlessness that resulted in a nap while still not having enough energy to get off the couch, and the overall ennui that made even watching trash TV too much of an effort, clearly, yes it really is that big of a deal. (I’ll spot you the boring but we can work around that.)
So.
Kindly keep the following in mind:
- You need to be in bed with the lights out for 9ish hours
- While Diet Coke is your beloved, water is your devoted, uplifting friend. Please don’t ignore her.
- Mealtimes don’t have to be fancy; veggie & cheese snack plates are absolutely ok.
That’s all. Really. Again, maybe a tad boring but it makes the rest of life sing.
xx oo
