Second crazy week coming up

What a crazy week; one down, one to go. I had only Thursday night off - was out every other evening. Work was busy and intense. We had some drama with tomorrow's event and I spent almost half my time putting out fires. Grueling.

Friday night I was so tired and overwhelmed from the entire week. It was also a difficult week seeing everyone I know pregnant. It just is. I took some time to feel the feelings, cry it out, discuss with my husband, and went to bed exhausted. The world looks different on the other side of 10 hours of sleep and I'm doing much better today.

This coming week is also going to be busy but after that I'm on two weeks vacation. Tomorrow is my big event; Monday is my late night at work; Tuesday is my early morning meeting. After that I can focus completely on Pesach preps. I have my shopping lists and to-do lists all ready, just need the time to implement everything.

Shots are going well. I started the Prednisone yesterday - yuck. It has the most vile taste. I should've listened to the sticker that says to take with food or milk. I tried that for today and it was much better. I read up a lot about it and saw that everyone talks about weigh gain on this medication. They say it's due to increased appetite so I've taken to monitoring my calorie intake. If it was something about retaining fluid that's beyond my control, but if I know I've had my calories for the day and keeping track of them then I can try to limit any unnecessary gain.

Lining check is later on this week.

  1. I didn't notice any weight gain on the Prednisone actually. Though I did noticed increased appetite. Which also made me think I was pregnant. A friend of mine said she lost weight on prednisone as it gave her so much energy she was more active. Sorry about the stressful week, hope the lining check goes well

    1. I have noticed an increase in energy! I can't tell if it's adrenaline because of other things going on or the meds. I also noticed an increase of sweet cravings but then again I usually have a big sweet tooth so who really knows.

  2. I hope this next crazy week goes by quickly and without too much trouble. I am sure the two weeks vacation will be well deserved! Hoping for good news at your lining check this week.
