19//An off kind of day
May. 22nd, 2018 11:01 pmThe weather was cooler again today, but with the sun it ended up warming up and I was fine in a 3/4 sleeve. Steve and I did the thing where we let the laundry get all over the place and barely had any clothes that we could wear to work... whoops! The morning was off to a lame start when I realized that I forgot my coffee at home and didn’t prepare anything for breakfast! I was able to make some muesli cereal and that was good at least.
First block was spent getting everyone organized again and talking about how we wanted to organize the rest of the year, and I think we came up with a good plan. 2nd block was fine. Nokomis is doing field days and concerts and other things this week, so my schedule there is a little wonky. I ended up spending a lot of time looking for pics of the students graduating from 8th grade from the past few years. That was fun!
When I got home, I was super tired and decided to nap. I’m struggling with sleeping still, constantly dozing in and out and feeling like I’m never really sleeping. It leaves me feeling so damn tired by the end of the work day. I slept more than I anticipated, getting up at 5:15 after having fallen asleep probably around 3. It felt good though, and when I woke up, I found Steve downstairs and we decided to get some food. It was Naf Naf again. Steve, being sweet, offered to pick it up for us, but I was thinking it would be nice to eat outside! On the way, we stopped at a gym in Pokémon go, and Steve mailed a package. We had a really funny moment when I told Steve I was gonna get my excellent curveball throw on this random wheedle (for my Mew quest), and I TOTALLY did. It was hilarious and also I’m a bamf.
Naf Naf was good, but since I’ve continued to feel gross about myself and STILL keep eating out and not making my own food and exercising not that often. I know part of it is my energy struggles, especially when I’m sleeping worse at night, I end up using so much of my available free time then catching up. Ugh. Haley was just chastising me and Bethany and most people yesterday how we don’t have as “intense” of personalities or extreme willpower to follow through but she does. I declined to point out that Haley literally has no other hobbies other than laying in bed and watching YouTube videos (no, really) so of course she doesn’t feel like she’s giving up one enjoyable thing for the cooking or working out or whatever. It’s annoying that there’s so little time in the day to split things up, but I really, REALLY want to get going. I know summer break is coming and I’ll have more time available to get it together, but I don’t understand how other years I made time for yoga or ITG and it’s so much harder now. Part of it is probably how into knitting I’ve gotten into and how much time it takes, but still. Sucks!
Speaking of knitting, I started the Local Yarn Shawl tonight. It is really amazing so far. The yarn from my last post is super pretty, and feels light and easy to knit with. I completed one round of the repeats and can’t wait to do more.
Tomorrow Steve’s company is doing a happy hour for him at 4:30 and I’m meeting them there! Now that he’s leaving I’m gonna meet his coworkers :P
