September Updates

Tuesday, October 4, 2016

Hey beautifuls. Welcome to October, it's offficiallyyyy fall! My favorite season of the year. Fall is especially exciting for me this year because I'm in a new city which means new adventures. What sucks is that I'm currently on the worst rotation that I've had thus far -- NICU -- and have zero time to enjoy the fall weather. It's incredibly overwhelming, a busy service, and I absolutely detest ICU care. The service is just so busy and understaffed that it's really really easy to get lost and burn out. I've been so stressed this month, and have resorted to my worst habits again. Luckily, I have one more week of the NICU and then one week of brutal nursery nights and then I'm on two months of easy rotations and a 2-week vacation! Super excited to get back to Pittsburgh and see my friends and family.

It's so easy to lose sight of things that matter when you're busy, overworked, and stressed day in and day out. Things like your emotional health, physical health, hobbies, happiness, relationships. And I'm honestly tired of feeling like that. I feel so bad that I come back from home so tired and worn out that I neglect my family when they want to talk to me. My physical health has definitely deteriorated. I come home everyday, immediately lay down in bed with takeout or junk food and binge eat. And it makes me feel disgusting that food has once again become my comfort. So I'm trying this new resolve where each day I do one good thing for myself. Whether that's catching up on beauty buzz, exercising, reading my new cookbook, making dinner, taking a bath, or even cleaning up my apartment. Just one productive thing per day to keep my mental sanity so I don't resort to binge eating.

So anyways, I was going to end this post with my favorites, but this post is already getting so long that I might just write a separate post. I haven't done a favorites post in sooooo long. Lots to update you guys on :) see you soon lovers <3
