I am not going to lie, I forgot about writing yesterday. I have been dealing with a multitude of life lately that my brain is not computing properly. So since I forgot yesterday, I decided to put days twelve and thirteen together. Day Twelve. If you are frustrated with your lack of spoons or your... Continue Reading →
Day Eleven. Focus on resting and relaxing today. Take a nap, sleep in, go to bed early. Well, I definitely didn't do much of relaxing today. I actually was much more productive today than I have been in awhile, so I guess that is a good thing..right? However I will take up that last notion... Continue Reading →

Day One talked about how I need to start going to bed instead of staying awake to do X,Y,Z. The first and second night went well, by the third night I was back to watching Ugly Betty....
