How I did it
It made me
happier 
How I did it: My lovely friends had a sit down with me and almost insisted I focus on this until trying to attempt anything new. They know I have been sleep deprived!First, I blocked out a bed time. I went to bed at that time, always. I found that I naturally need about 7 to 8 hours of sleep.Then, quite by accident, I started making the act of going to bed a ritual with a cup of tea and a lit candle on the nightstand. … Read how I did it…

today I had two cups of coffee with milk. Then NOTHING until about 3 pm….a cheese stick and a handful of almonds. And a sugar free popsicle. I am just not hungry at all. It must have something to do with the fact that Mr. M is flu-y. I feel on the verge of puking myself and I definitely do NOT want to consider cooking.
Kids are eating, I am not. I am losing weight, but in a not-good way. This reminds me of the type of morning sickness I used to get with the youngest one, where everything made me nauseated. I have to be sick.
