Cycle Awareness
Energy
I was really, really tired today. I am unsure why. We didn’t go to Crossfit yesterday and we didn’t go again this morning which means I “slept in” twice in a row. I think it must be the stress of my visa that is affecting my cortisol levels and just exhausting me. Today I got up around 07h30 (or perhaps before). It was easy enough to get out of bed. The heavy tiredness hung around me the whole day, especially through the morning. I went to Crossfit at 12 PM and I got my energy back after that. It is 22h41 now. I went to babysitting this evening and now I am home and in bed and so excited to sleep.
Food
I did indeed eat breakfast! My food this weekend hasn’t been all that great which is okay because I am mostly just trying to survive this week and stay on top of very basic adulting. My appetite has been pretty standard/regular. I am not craving anything and I am drinking enough (I am not overly thirsty).
Emotions
Today has been a tough day. I woke up feeling frustrated with Calvin. I was upset and felt a bit sick throughout the morning with my visa. I felt happy and hopeful midday. By mid-afternoon, I was angry and frustrated. This evening I had a good time babysitting so that made me happy. I am feeling quite sad, not too motivated. I am feeling very introverted. I have definitely been more subdued at work. I think I have been quite sensitive today.
Concentration
I was finding it really difficult to concentrate this morning. After my workout, I was able to focus better. But overall, my concentration levels haven’t been good at all.
Productivity
I haven’t had a lot on my plate lately, especially today. I haven’t been too productive with what I do have on my plate.
Home
I feel like I haven’t spent a lot of time at home in ages but no, I am not really keeping that up to date with my chores.
