i am stressed

i was at the doc’s yesterday, complaining abt the headache that i so frequently get these days. after a long series of tests on me, he concluded i was facing a lot of stress at work. tension headache is what i have. and that’s the cause of my insomnia too.

am i really stressed? he wanted to give me an MC for today, but i told him no. i had stuff to finish. he smiled and said, “must learn how to relax and not think about work all the time k?”

after what i felt was a long and tiring day last nite, i headed to bed feeling very tired at 1+. i couldnt sleep. tried sleeping in all sorts of positions, on my left, on my right, curled up, face down, straight up and even upside down! at 3 am, i turned on the lights frustrated and decided to work on project ding dong.

half an hr later, my head is pounding, and it didnt feel good. shut the lights and tried to grab a wink. at near 4am, the lights were back on, and this time i tried reading. i finished a chapter and a half and am still wide awake. urgh.

imagine the frustration i had!! was utterly pissed with myself, for not being able to ease into sleep. somehow, i fell asleep much later (dunno when) and woke at 7am this morning, feeling that i havent slept at all.

urgh.

and the bus made me wait for 20 mins. supposedly to be on time and ended up very late. it’s quite a bad start for the weekend if u asked me.

Hi there! Thanks for popping by. I'm Cherie, a ftwm (full-time working mum) to 3 lovely kids (2 boys & a princess) and my motto in life is to BE HAPPY. Sure, life isn't all that smooth but it's the mentality that counts, no? This blog documents my life. Or rather, snippets of my life that has passed me by. I love capturing life memories in the blog and being able to read back and laugh at myself (or anyone). I love to eat (A LOT), travel and paint my own nails so the blog is mostly about that. Is that considered lifestyle? Of cos, the family is also very much an integral part of me so there would be loads of memories about the husband and my kids - Jerry (9yo), Jerome (7yo) and Leia (2.5yo) and everyone else that's close to me. I like documenting the kids' milestones, their growing up years, their achievements (and sometimes, mine), and my struggles and battles with motherhood. It sure ain't easy. I love seeking out good food and travelling, is trigger-happy, love new gadgets, love exploring new places and strives to live life to the fullest. I aspire to travel the world as much as I can, to soak in the different sights across the various continents and visit all the Disneylands in the world (almost there!). Have fun reading and do drop me a comment to say hi! Love, Cherie Lim Find me on Instagram.
