Insomnia

Well tonight I just haven’t been able to sleep. It’s now early morning and I don’t think I’ll be getting to sleep any time soon. A day of coffee and battling through I think. We are taking the kids swimming at 12.45 and have to tackle Waitrose before we can come home for a chilled afternoon (when I will probably nap)

I did get peckish not long ago and very naughtily raided the Christmas food shop and helped myself to a bag of crisps, an eclair (which are a substitution for the profiteroles we ordered) and an orange. I was hoping eating them would make me feel hungry but they haven’t at all.

I also think I have the start of a cold coming on, major blocked up nose and a bit of a headache. Joy!

This is frequently me-it’s horrible and puts your day completely out of whack. And for me it sends my diet into a spin as when I haven’t slept I’m starving and crave carbs. By 2pm I am done in.
No one ever believes me when I say I haven’t slept at all, but my fit bit confirms it. Ugh.
