Am I a weirdo for liking documentaries and crime shows too much?? The only trash TV I watch is Below Deck and thatβs it haha. Maybe some Housewives here and there.
Exhausted and barely have the energy to mom today. Feeling so numb. Canβt bring myself to shower. Going to church tonight alone w/o the kids or husband and idk I just donβt feel like going.
Going to start making some small changes in hopes I can get my blood sugars and A1C in range and without my stupid med mounjaro. I canβt stand it. The side effects are awful.
The top things I want to improve on is late night snacking, I especially do this when Iβm reading or watching reels when the kids are asleep. I also need to get my water intake back up again and get to bed earlier. I need some form of movement in the day and to reduce stress.
Unfortunately until certain deadlines are past us I donβt think Iβll be able to fully release the stress. Each week brings a new set of challenges.
Thank goodness I didnβt take melatonin like last night. Idk if itβs the cooler air or running around like a maniac yesterday but I slept past my alarm this morning and getting all 4 kids ready and out of the house was a little insane this AM. We were all running behind.
One thing Iβve learned in my recent life experiencesβ¦Do not join police wife groups unless extremely well vetted and hell donβt join mom groups in general. Some of the worst kind of women lurk in these groups and will not give you the advice and empathy you seek.
Taking control of my health by just simply going to bed earlier, managing stress(this is going to be the tough one), more water intake (used to drink at least 128oz a day), and limiting or avoiding late night snacking. Also more exercise/movement in the day. We shall see!
Apart of making my mental health better would probably be to stay off this site too. lol. Social media in general. But as a full time working mom of 4 this is my manufactured βcommunityβ
