sunday, january 28th

my favorite day of the week 😌😌

sunday reset !!!

my mondays are the busiest/ most stressful day of my week. it’s extremely important to me that i prepare for my week on sundays to reduce any extra stress that i can!!

i started my morning with my usualy morning routine:
- skin care
- ice roll
- make bed
then i made my to do list for sunday!!

i ate breaky , grabbed starbies (of course) & headed to SI for pchem.
(SI is basically a a free group tutoring session that Iowa offers!)


came home and made my current hyperfixation for lunch lol
sourdough cottage cheese pizza toast 🍕

after lunch i knew i needed to do my hour of PA but i was having so much anxiety about what i needed to get done today & assignments this week that i decided to go for a walk outside instead of the gym.
getting fresh air and listening to a podcast was soooo good for me & definitely put me in the best mindset to start the week off!
(check my insta story for pod recs!!)

i went to the library to meet up w my dear friend kars

saturday, january 20th

today was a gentle reminder to find joy in all the simple things

got to spend my morning in one of my favorite places with the cutest (& smallest) patients 🍼🏥

i’ve been feeling so exhausted lately no matter how much sleep i’m getting. i decided to listen to my body & let my four hours of running around the hospital floor be considered my one hour of daily movement
this past week has been full of early mornings, grinding workouts in the gym, and also feeling extremely overwhelmed with the semester already. i let myself take a nap before heading home.
- something i’m working on in 2024 is being able to find a healthy balance between being touch on myself so i can reach my goals & allowing myself rest when it is genuinely needed

pretty sun and snow on my way back home
of course i had to make a pit stop to see my favorite boy

my sissys were so excited to see me, i love them endlessly ☺️☺️

snuggled up with walter & violet read us one of her favorite princess storys, how wholesome 🥹

watched a really good movie with my dad🍿 (society of the snow)

crawled in bed to journal/read/write out my sunday reset list
