› Exhausted But Can’t Sleep? Why Won’t My Brain Shut Off?
Your body is begging for rest, but your brain refuses to shut up.
Isn’t it wonderful when your body is tired but your mind is going on high speed like it’s on something and never wants to shut up? You know what I mean? Have you experienced this?
Today, for the first time in.. forever as it feels like, I finally had arealgoodsleep in – scratch the real good part – which I should be happy about. Am I? No. Why? I woke up early, tried to fall back asleep because E isn’t home and – honestly.. THIS MOMMA IS TIRED – after a long time I did.. half sleep.. half awake. My body is super tired but my brain.. feels like it’s on something – I don’t know what but I hate it.
So today, I have been tired. I have been exhausted but I’m still awake – no, I will not do the 32+h sleep deprivation again.
So today has been a “chill” day – store, salad for dinner, ice cream and started to pack the suitcase – again. I’m currently in bath and I’m s t r u g g l i n g to stay awake.
So today hasn’t been that exciting.
Makeup but meeeh hair 🤌🏼 (filter)
Oh I did makeup for the first time in a while 💀 People stared at me when I was at the store.. I don’t know why? Is it because the eyebrows didn’t match my hair? Or were they uneven? Meh, doesn’t matter.
This… Just this!! $42 / €37

› 32 Hours Awake: Sleep Deprivation, Parenting & Pure Survival Mode
32+ hours awake, one overenergized child, zero brain cells, and caffeine as a personality trait. Welcome to survival mode. 😄🖤💀
Guess what? I still haven’t gotten any sleep.
It’s currently 5 PM, and I can honestly say: I A M D E A D.
Not literally, but you get what I mean.
My son is still all over the place, full of energy, and I’m honestly jealous. If I had even one percent of his energy, I’d be happy.
Headache ✅
Sound sensitive ✅
Light sensitive ✅
I was hoping I’d at least get a nap during the day, but with my luck… I doubt it.
I need to keep E awake for the rest of the day, otherwise I’ll probably have another night like this, and my body and mental health honestly can’t handle that.
So here we go 😵💫 A few more hours to survive.
I’m praying he sleeps tonight because I have a super important meeting tomorrow that I absolutely need to attend.
I’ve officially been awake for 32 hours and 30 minutes… and I definitely feel it.How’s your day?

› Sleep Deprivation Is Brutal: 3AM, Peppa Pig & A Massive Headache
What happens when your child wakes up at 11pm and refuses to sleep? Chaos!
Sleepless night.
Sleep deprived & massive headache.
Tired momma
So my son decided to wake up at 23.00 and here we are, around 3am. Watching Peppa Pig. Yes I let him watch TV just because M is sleeping and has to get up early to go to work.
I’m sitting on the couch, struggling with headache – light shifting from TV, the lamps in the window and the fan in the kitchen. All at the same time
While being up (I don’t sleep when my son is awake – no matter how tired I am) I deleted over 3k files on my phone – pictures. That’s crazy and I still haven’t gone through all the albums 💀 I don’t wanna know how many I have honestly.
On my old phone I always had around 10-15k in the gallery (pictures and videos) so right now I’m trying to declutter and save “just because I might need/use it for the future”. Na – be gone crap! To the trash bin you go!
I wonder if I will be able to stay awake the whole day till tomorrow’s bed time. That will be a challenge, that’s for sure!
