today's a rough one - and by rough i mean i have a very long spa appointment today i'm tempted to cancel - girls you know pure exhaustion has set in when hours of pampering are awaiting you and you have zero desire *bananas* - oh and it's already paid for too - this is not good - foolish talk, i know
yesterday i came home from work - you guessed it - exhausted - it was 'one of those days' - what could go wrong, went wrong - and even a surprise delivery of flowers that came to me at work didn't help - i get home - take care of a few things - am all gun-ho how i'm going to clean the house and finally put together my console table i bought (btw its been sitting in its box for 2 months) - but the couch looked really comfy - so i shuffled my way over - and BAM - 9 hours later - i awake
this girl doesn't nap - i can't nap if you put a gun to my head (then again if you had a gun to your head, it would be kinda' hard to nap since ur adrenaline is ... ok you get the point) - so now what do you do when it's 3 am? - of course i'm not tired anymore - i just slept 9 hours (which is unheard for me too - i'm a 6 hour kinda' sleeper) - i have a dishwasher full of clean dishes, a sink full of dirty dishes, laundry to do and be folded, presents to be wrapped, floors to be polished, windows to be cleaned, etc - oh you didn't think i actually did this, at 3 am, did you? - hellllz NO - i watched Forest Gump and had some skittles too
heave-ho - off to work i go - bring on the coffee - lots and lots of coffee - oh yea and i'm suppose to have dinner plans tonight *bwahahah*

Oh darling do not fret! Everything will be okay in the end; if it's not okay, it's not the end (always loved that quote).

You poor thing. I hope you're really able to relax and rest up this weekend! I'm not a napper either (I always feel like I should be doing something) so when I nap, you know I'm tired!
ReplyDeleteI'm off to sleep but will reply to your email in the morning!

oh I do hope you went?? Long spa apointment, paid...please tell me it was a blast! Hope you can relax soon! Caroline
ReplyDeleteI hope you went to the spa..
ReplyDeleteSometimes our bodies tell us, enough is enough.. time for some deep restorative sleep..
I hope you feel much better.
Yikes! I have no issue napping. It's one of my favorite pastimes!! 9 hours of sleep? I try to get that every night! HA! Seriously, I've always NEEDED a ton of sleep. Even as a kid. I would've gone home & laid on the sofa too & at 3am no way am I doing anything that actually NEEDS to be done. Hope you get through today!
ReplyDeleteHugs, my friend. Being overwhelmed around this time is no fun. Those who love you I'm sure will understand. Love to you!
ReplyDeleteThose days are hard...but you obviously needed that much sleep....maybe take it easy this weekend.....enjoy your spa day...I'm sure after it you will be happy you went!
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way..I blame it on the cold weather :) Your blog is absolutely fabulous-just became a member/follower of your blog. I hope you'll follow me back and we can keep in touch. Happy Blogging!!!

Oh dear Erika.. You need to re-boot. This is such a tough time of year. I empathize in so many ways. After 53 years of life.. you just feel it every now and then. If you just take one day at time. Is there anything you can do to make things easier for you? If so.. do whatever that is.
ReplyDeleteHang in there :) and this too will pass.
