I've been feeling weak and lazy since Monday, and now I know why. Last night, an *unwanted visitor came, and I've been feeling lazier than ever. I am also having menstrual cramps, which added to my misery. I already anticipated this last night. I know it'll get worse because I didn't have my period last month. My period has been irregular, and sometimes skip for a month. And then the next month, when my period comes, it'll be hell. And it is like I have a faucet inside my V, and in full force, because of how strong it's flowing. I just want to be a man right now ರ_ರ. Anyone who wants to swap ಥ‿ಥ.

I did a lot of things just so I could have a productive day, but I always end up reading a manga or watching an anime, but even this won't give me satisfaction as I am looking for something else, and because of that, I get bored easily. I can't just find enjoyment in anything I choose to do. Why do laziness exist? I mean, why were menstrual cramps even created? How I wish they just removed this, this should never ever exist ರ_ರ aigoooo. And another thing, I've been craving lots of foods in the past day, which added more to my annoyance as my budget's about to run out. Please save me, huhu ಥ‿ಥ.

But anyway, today's not different from yesterday. I still feel lazy, but this morning, I've already promised to myself that I'll be more productive today. Fortunately, I was able to do it. Despite the pain I'm having, I can say that I had a productive day. I started it with Hive, reading a few articles and leaving a comment too. Then, when Mommy D arrived with the fish and the fresh green potato leaves she bought, I took care of them, from cleaning and dissecting -errr cutting the fish and cooking two different kinds of dishes out of them. From left to right, it is Sinigang na Isda and Sinaing sa Asin na Isda.

And those dishes, especially the Sinigang na Isda, should have a tomato or camias to make it sour, but because they are not available, we just squeeze a Calamansi to make it sour. We just put it in when it's already done cooking. And in this gloomy weather, it is really a perfect dish to have for lunch. I feel like the pain I'm experiencing right now suddenly disappears as I savor this yummy and sour dish. And aside from my mood lifting up a little because of the heavy lunch I had, I also feel more relaxed and calm now. and I feel like sleeping, but I don't take a nap now in the. I just changed my habit.

So because I decided not to take a nap, I just decided to go check the back side to see where the two old couples are living. We have this two old couple that's been living on Mom's land until now. It's amazing how they already built a lot in here, they even made a path out of stone and wood on the small stream in the backyard. It's been so long since I last visited this part because even this spot was being used by that old couple. We're not complaining, though, because they are really good when it comes to cleanliness and even taking care of things. They also have a spot on the right side, I just couldn't get a photo of it because the couple is there looking at me.

Aside from adding that small rest spot, they also have lots of plants. This one particularly caught my attention, as it was hanging on their door. It's pretty and actually cool. Their place looks more pleasant and lovelier with these hanging plants. And look where that plant was placed, it is in a coconut husk. It's actually a pretty good idea, no? I love the creativity, although its not new, but I think it is that old couple who made this.

And because I got hungry with my productivity and that small walk, I decided to eat a biscuit and this yummy chocolate with marshmallows and some kind of biscuit inside. It's sad how this biscuit instantly disappears from my hand as I devour it. I just didn't really notice ರ_ರ. I actually want to eat ensaymada or putok (star bread), but no one will go to the market, so I just bought these two in Mommy D's store. And because I'm also on a tight budget, this food is already enough, as I don't want to overspend either. Especially since I have incoming expenses, I really have to spend this time on my nasal spray. This is the time that I wish I had a million dollars in my bank account. Aigoyah!

But nevermind that, I had a productive day today. So I hope you too had a wonderful and meaningful day. So how's your Thursday?

Dysmenorrhea, nako I'm suffering like that too before. Atleast naging productive pa Rin Ang araw mo hehehe.

Natakot nga ako kahapon kasi biglang sumakit ng todo. Iba yong sakin nya dun sa mga nauna eh.

Pahingi biscuit.

Haha kulang pa nga, lolol

Chocolate is good, not sure what about it helps. And especially dark chocolate. Thankfully, I don't have to deal with any of it anymore..
Sometimes painful cramps can be due to endometriosis? If it continues to get worse might need to be checked for that.
What I use to do tho, Epson salt baths and ibuprofen and keep on trucking🤗🥰
Best wishes🤗

Oh yep, dark chocolate I heard about that too. You are so lucky, but right now the pain go away already. I hope I don't have to experience the pain again, huhu

Mother suggest too what med to take but I jusy don't want to take any. I almost take one yesterday but I just bear the pain 🤧

I don't like taking medicines anymore either🤷
I'm glad you're feeling better.
Best wishes🤗

I love that part you said you promised yourself to be productive and you were. It all begin with determining and we will definitely achieve that through our determination. For the menstrual cramp, I take drug to relieve me of the pain that may happen because if I don't, it would make me feel uncomfortable and lazy too. Mine doesn't flow just like you and is consistent in each months. The menstruation is part of women and that's our pride, so don't think of swapping 😄😄

Hehe, right? As long as you chose to do it, then really apply it with the strong determination, you'll never fail on that. I almost take one yesterday. But i woke in the middle of the night and the pain's gone, fo4 now. Hope the pain won't come back again later aigooi. I always wish I am a man whenevee I'm in pain like this due to periods.'s pain, lol

Hahaha 😀 it happens to most ladies wanting to swap gender 😅 that's who we are made to be.

Why do laziness exist? I mean, why were menstrual cramps even created?

Laziness is a bad habit that like infects us sometimes right? I of course have no comment on the latter but glad they don't find me 😂

I need to promise myself to be more productive more often, hehe. Good you broke out me next hopefully 😊 In a root currently but than again trying to recover from a recent cold/medicine change. At work today, yesterday called in sick so that's a step forward. Hopefully be 100% close to me come weekend time.

Seriously, haha, it's annoying sometimes coz laziness makes my brain lag a lot, lololol. But do you want it to find you? I'll point your way, HAHAHA

How are you now then? Hope you're 100% better now?

But do you want it to find you? I'll point your way, HAHAHA

Haha, Nah it's better that it stays with you ladies. I trust what I hear about the experiences you ladies have, it's much worse than anything us guys experience.

How are you now then? Hope you're 100% better now?

I'm better now but not much sleep last night though as I was coughing out my lungs. Urgh things stacking up because things seem to go wrong when you don't have the will to do them.

I am currently going through menopause, and it's very difficult for me right now. I understand your problem.
