I woke up this morning.. a bit tired.. had a restless night.. and decided to not go into work.
I picked up a shift yesterday, because I really need to get ahead financially.

I kinda feel a bit guilty about not going in today.
It means I will have kind of defeated the whole point of doing extra hours yesterday.
I have 2 more shifts this week, tommorrow which is Friday and Saturday.
Maybe I am trying to do too much at once?

I find my job quite boring, but its the fact that it isnt a difficult job to do, and that I dont have to go through the motions of looking for new work and having to prepare myself for interviews etc. Its easy but boring.

I still need to get a routine going for my days off.
So that I am actively doing something everyday.
I guess as most things it will take time to get to where I want to be and have my life being more fuller.

Blue

Sometimes we have to have a doona/mental health day and don't feel guilty about it.

Routine is important even on your days off, so try and get some routine on you days off.

Go Blue!!!

I do wacky crap like that. Luckily I get away with it but it doesn't help...best not to take extras at the moment and just attend your rostered shifts, a little stability all round lessens stress.
