Ever have those days? Maybe it is the weather – more than likely tho’, it is that I am just plain-ole-tuckered out. It’s been a long week. When I get to this “past-the-point-of-tired” place, I get really, REALLY grumpy. And sometimes I cry when I get to the point of sheer exhaustion. I’m starting to feel like I’m going down that slippery slope today – hopefully I can just make it to 3:30 or so, and then get out of here and rest…
I don’t work on Fridays now which is nice, but it is also becoming stressful, because I have been leaving on Thursdays thinking that there is still so much work to get done. Many of you know that my hours & salary at work were reduced. I was fine with it – understood that there was a business need, etc… but also (for MONTHS) leading up to this change, kept hammering that if they moved any of us to this status, they needed to take something off our plate. Well, that hasn’t happened. I have at least 40 hours of work a week to get done in 32. I know I’m whining, but darn it, it is frustrating. The type-A, anal, perfectionist in me doesn’t like leaving things undone.
Add to that, the fact that I really need to get into some more regimented exercise routine, and I’m just feeling like somehow today I’ve failed myself a bit. Do any of you watch the Biggest Loser? Aubrey was voted off this week, and at the end, she was talking about having to make exercise a priority for herself (she has 5 kids) – and that being it wasn’t being selfish to take care of herself so that she could take care of her family. I forget that sometimes. I definitely have to make the time to physically take care of myself. I’m thinking I am going to try out the T-Tapp program that so many people have raved about. It is something I can do at home along with walking. So, now I just need to order it! OK – a few more hours to get all this stuff done. Happy Thursday…
