Sometimes stress gets ahold of you when you least expect it and then you find yourself crying and watching Gossip Girl on a Friday morning. Yes, hello, I am an adult and this is how I spent the better part of my morning.

Okay, that sounds super melodramatic but the general gist is that my feelings of stress from yesterday overcame me when I woke up and I gave myself a few hours to collect my feelings. It’s difficult to fully explain why I felt that way. All of a sudden I found myself incredibly dissatisfied with where I was and I just needed some time to escape via my favorite TV show. My moods have been consistently on the rise the last few months so it’s no wonder I was due for a lil cry sesh!

Anyway, I got my act together and went over to bake cupcakes with my mother-in-law. Baking is a great stress relief for me although now that I’m eating healthier I find myself having less opportunities to bake anything at all. I think this week really drained me, socially speaking. It’s not like I’ve talked to a lot of people but all of these plans have me feeling exhausted emotionally and physically. I feel a bit apprehensive about tomorrow and I’m really hoping everything goes smoothly.

I just feel very tired and stressed and I’m trying to work through a lot of inner criticism at the moment.
