Well, for the first time in a long time I woke up feeling like crap. The first issue was not sleeping any more than 5 hours, and interrupted hours at that. Even with wake/sleep issues I’ve been getting usually 7 hours. As well I’m a little (TMI) constipated, and my period started. I figured some fresh air would do me good so I went outside to do some light trimming. I just stopped a minute ago because I almost fell over when standing up and thought breakfast wasn’t going to stay down (it did).

Waaaa… I just want to go back to bed. 

I actually think the dizziness is a combination sinus / hydration issue so I’ve come in to get some water. I do feel a little like just crawling back into bed until tomorrow though.

I’m not actually that tired (kind of punchy from the lack of sleep). I’m really more nauseous than anything. Breakfast didn’t sit right, and I made myself some soup for lunch, but it’s not sitting any better. My truly ‘off’ sign is that I’m not hungry, not even a little. I mean, for me, that’s unusual. I can always eat.

I did try and nap this afternoon. Since I’m sitting here on the computer I guess you can say that it didn’t go well.

(later)

I do feel a little better, but I think I’ll take a sleep aid tonight since I feel like I’m almost too tired.  I know when I get this way that I simply won’t sleep tonight either.  I made a point to keep eating today, although at times I really was kind of forcing myself to.  I wasn’t even going to worry about macros, however, since twice I made myself drink protein shakes because I couldn’t face food I ended up okay.  I did a little more trimming in the garden before dinner and I’m hoping that we really do get the two days of nice weather that they are forecasting.  I can do my cardio outside tomorrow!
