When you feel embarrassed then i'll be your pride

I had one of those weeks last week. So much so that I've only just got my "ommph" back. Nothing particularly awful happened, and I even had a day off, it was just filled with little frustrations which got right under my skin, including:

• Learning that my right wisdom teeth are coming through. I had my left ones out 2 years ago after many years of pain, and the process of getting them out wasn't much fun, so I'm really hoping righties behave themselves and come out straaaaight
• Despite upping my headache medication and feeling like a zombie after 11pm, I still had a considerable amount of headaches last week, several of which I woke up with
• Ever ongoing struggle with budgetting and money, and figuring out what I can afford so I have enough money left at the end of the month. This means shopping is off for the immediate future :(
• A very depressing meeting at work; big changes are coming, but no-one really knows what these changes mean so everyone feels a bit limbo at the moment
• My bank managing to make the process of getting a replacement card so excruciating that I've had to try very hard not to lose my temper on several occasions!

To top it all off, this weekend flew by soooo quickly, and I spent most of the day in bed yesterday with a sore throat! I went to bed in a bit of a "poor me" grump, but luckily today went quite well so I'm going to have a kind Lizzy week and make sure I look after myself this week! This means early bedtimes, wrapping up warm, trying to think positive, and just generally not beating myself up about the little things! For me, just realising that I've been finding things a bit hard and vowing to cut myself some slack is half the battle to getting back to my usual bouncy self :)

So here's to an easy week *raises chai tea*!
