Dog Tired

Dear kind readers, all three of you, I haven’t been shirking my blog writing duties intentionally, I’ve been under the weather the last few days. 

Both yesterday and today I’ve been in my pajamas, and very lethargic. It’s not a true cold, but my energy is gone. Zapped. Drained. You get the idea. Even sitting here at my laptop is taking a lot out of me. 

If I had to guess its source, it’s because the last few weeks, we’ve been prepping for an upper upper management (think executive) visit at work. The stress has been gradually on the increase and culminated with the exec’s visit last Wednesday. On Thursday, you could almost feel a collective sigh of relief. But Friday, the aftereffects kicked in: I overslept by a little more than an hour and dragged for most of the day. Ugh. That night I went to bed at 11:00 PM and finally got out of bed at 12:30 PM on Saturday. I guess you could say I was a little tired.

Today, Sunday, isn’t much different, but I guess this is a good time as any to recharge. It’s the weekend and if I want to stay in my jammies, I will. And believe you me, I have every intention of doing just that. 

I had a few things on my to-do list that are just going to have to wait and I had to pass on an invite to go get a pedicure. Sounded wonderful, but I have to shake whatever this is. 

Once I’m done with this post, I’ll be retiring to the sofa or the bed. Most likely the sofa since there’s no TV in the bedroom. I will remedy that. Just not today.
