More success

Last night I worked the overnight shift at the hospital. Needless to say, cookie making was not an option. Night time is not my problem when I work the graveyard shifts, it's the morning after that gets me. I come home exhausted and almost hallucinating. I love my job, but I often leave the floor with this feeling of "I didn't know I could do that". As in work that hard while being so tired, or simply be in some ridiculous situation that only nurses know about. So, I get home and I feel like I need to nurture myself. Self-care to this girl means desserts and carbs. Because I'm exhausted my judgment is impaired and I'll do things I wouldn't normally do at 8:30 in the morning.. Like make cookies or eat 5 bowls of cereal. This morning I ate one bowl of cereal and a nectarine, which is what I would normally eat for breakfast so I 'm happy with that. While I don't deserve 20 chocolate chip cookies after a hard night, a yummy breakfast is in order. Tonight back to the hospital. We'll see how tomorrow morning goes. On the second day I am usually more tired.
