Cycle Awareness

Energy

Once again, I didn’t sleep well last night because of Billy. He snores so much and I really struggle. We/I slept until about 9 AM which is pretty late for us/me. Calvin actually woke me up. I did have an energy dip earlier this afternoon and I had a nap for about an hour. We have just finished watching Euphoria. It is quite late — 22h28 — but I am not tooooo tired.

Food

Yeah, again not great. But I am ready to be more prepared this week. This evening Calvin and I made a Deliciously Ella pasta recipe for lunch tomorrow and probably Tuesday, too, because there is a lot of pasta there. But yeah, this weekend/today wasn’t great. My appetite is still quite small but I don’t know if it is because the shit quality of my diet this weekend is just filling me up too much and not leaving much room for anything else.

Emotions

Today I was quite sensitive and a bit all over the place. Calvin also seemed to be going through something emotionally so it was hard managing that with my own emotions. By the time it was 8PM or so, I felt not okay. I felt like I had completely wasted the weekend and didn’t use any time this weekend to get into the right mindset and look after myself. I spoke to Calvin about it and that is when we got up and made pasta, I cleaned the dishes and got ready for bed. Also we decided to skip the gym tomorrow so we didn’t have to rush to bed. So that put me in a gentler mood. I did feel like being at home today but we did go out for a little bit because Calvin wanted to.

Concentration

There was nothing for me to concentrate too much on today.

Productivity

Home

I could have done more this afternoon to put me in a better space this evening, but at least I did chores this evening. I really had to push myself though.
