Tired All Day
I got 8+ hours of sleep last night, but was still tired all day I’m hoping it’s just because of “girl stuff” and not because I’m getting sick. I have big plans for this weekend (like, a little thing called a half marathon!) so I cannot get sick. All I know is I desperately wanted to fall ... Read More about Tired All Day
