So tired... want sleep

I'm so sick of working these long hours I'm going to shoot someone. I can't wait for this test to be over with and I can go back to my normal hours. I've been working from 6:30am to about 6pm everyday for the last 2.5 weeks. (Although we did get out at normal times a couple days last week because of the rain). I'm just cranky, I've been eating stupid junk food because it's there in front my face, I'm bored and I'm tired so I need the sugar. I haven't stepped on the scale in a while, but I'm pretty sure I've put on a couple pounds. I've been so off track on the weight watchers for the last 3 months basically. I haven't been tracking like I should and I've been "cheating" nearly everyday. I don't know what I need to do to get my motivation back. I want to lose at least another 15 more pounds, if not another 30. Darn it.

This cat and I are on the same page

So it starts again

It's the end of my cycle and I should be getting my period soon and I'm feeling like poop on a platter. Yesterday I fell asleep on the couch at about 5:15 and slept until 9:30. Then I was up for a couple hours and feeling icky and I whined and cried to Aaron about stupid stuff, and then we had an argument about the dishes. Then I fell asleep again from 11:30 until 6am this morning. The night before it was the same thing, sleep from 5:30 until 9:30, then sleep again from 11 to 6am. Feeling sluggish and icky. I don't know if those are symptoms of PMDD, or if I'm just totally worn out and tired from the long stressful hours I'm pulling at work. I just want 3 straight days off I think so I can recoup. Not going to happen though. I'm working 12 hrs. this coming up Saturday :(

Monster Zit From Hell

So Tuesday I noticed I was starting to get one of those obnoxious zits that sits under the skin and just pulses with pain, sucky. So, I grabbed a wash cloth, and soaked it in hot water and applied to my face, so the zit would come to the surface. I swear I didn't try to pop it because I know what happens when you do that... But anyway, I put the hot compress on it, and I put a little spot treatment on it - basically a little dab of the mint julep mask I usually use on my face and then after washing it off I dabbed a little tea tree oil on it. Well, in the morning it was HUUUUUGE, and red and swollen and nasty looking. :( Today it doesn't look much better. Sucks to be female and get those stupid monthly breakouts. I'm also a little worried that instead of a zit I have the super strain of staph infection that is going around the state right now, that's how they say it starts - with a pimple. How lame is that?

Washing your hands regularly is the best way to prevent the spread of staph infection, just remember that.

Grrr...

So I worked 72 hours last week. I'm not super complaining, but I was tired as hell last week and I thought I would have a normal workweek this week, but already I'm busy and I'll probably end up working until 6pm again today :( I already know I'll be doing at least one 12hr. day this week anyway, which is fine, I get time and a half for overtime, which makes it all worth it. Thing that sucks is I can't make it to Jazzercise when I work those kinds of hours, and I eat kinda crappy food because I just feel like it dammit! Anyway, I'm stressed and it's only gonna get worse I think. Lame. The money is good and I'm planning on buying myself a new mattress when this is all over, so exciting. I guess I'm just going to have to put my weight-loss plans on hold for a little while. Oh well, who cares.
