One of THOSE days

Good grief!

Okay, maybe it's more accurate to say "one of those weeks"...

I've been feeling tired, moody, grouchy lately. On Wednesday, that all came to a head, and I found myself falling asleep behind the wheel driving Boy home from school. It's like a 6 mile drive, so yeah, I was tired. Fortunately, Beloved was home early because of his own doctor's appointment. I walked in at 3:30 and was tucked into bed by 4pm. I didn't wake up until 9:30 the next morning. Seriously, I slept for 18 hours.

I felt great when I woke up, I guess I just needed some major catch-up! Got through the day, made dinner, got everyone to the gym to eat and then split up again...Beloved dropped the kids in childcare so he could do yoga while I burned up the treadmill and did my nutrition class. The second half of my workout didn't go so well...I got a stitch in my side that became a screaming-hot-poker-OUCH when I tried to do a leg-lift set. An ovarian cyst rupture, and boy-howdy! I did a little stretching out, but it was minor torture to get out of the building. I got home and just sat on the couch next to Beloved, not moving, for an hour. I was done in at 10pm (despite the crazy sleep from ealier!) and went to bed with some Ibprofen.

By midnight, I was up again, tired and aching. I ended up on the couch, snuggling with my cats. Beloved came to check on me at some point, but I didn't wake up enough to go back to bed.

This morning started out alright...I was a little groggy and my usual slow wake-up self, but managed. Girl and I spent most of the day running errands. We went to the pet store and looked at ALL the various critters and picked out some presents for the kitties. We went to Target to grab lunch, and then ended up in the bargain section where she lined up all the plastic dinosaurs - TRexes against brachiosaurus - and earned a lot of smiles and chuckles. We went grocery shopping. We picked up a snack and picked up Boy and got home.

And I'm wiped out! oiy!

Most of the groceries are put away, but Girl managed to dump one of the craft bins in the Great Room. Boy has TWO BAGS of school work in the kitchen, but he did clean up the HexBugs in his room (I think). I called in the cavalry...Beloved is picking up tacos for dinner, ShadoKnight and Einhander are come over to yank the house into order...

TOMORROW IS BACONFEST!

I have my recipes...but...shhhhhhh! They are yet untried! GAH! Definitely one of those...
