6th March 2007 - dead on their feet......

……just like I feel!

I am soooooooo tired these days – I can’t seem to shake it off. It’s 8pm and I wish I could just head off to bed and stay there until tomorrow. My neck and shoulders are numb and my mind has all-but shut down already tonight.

I don’t understand why. Is it the diet? Is it some kind of SAD? Is it just that I need a holiday? Is it something else entirely?

I just don’t know. Having just spent a small fortune on a week’s holiday, I hope it’s that because if I don’t come home feeling completely refreshed I will feel very cheated. We’re only going a few miles from home, literally yet my folks are off to Cyprus for a week and it’s costing them less than we’re paying for our tiny trip.

Anyway, I digress, I’m falling asleep on the sofa of a night time regularly. I’m tired all the time.

It’s just not like me. I am usually the hurricane who blows through town leaving a wake of destruction and mayhem. I am usually the one saying ‘let’s just finish this before we pack in for the day’. I am always busy. I never stop. Talking of which, tomorrow I will have completed four years of PAD, without a single day missed. No-one has ever done that on pbase before so I’m a trend setter!

So, when I picked up the valentine’s day roses off the side to get put in the compost (you see, my roses (or my love) don’t die, they go towards making new stuff grow…..) and saw how straight they still are but how withered the flowers, I just thought they were a good symbol of today really.

Last year my crazy little sis was bidding on ebay and this year she's also 'right up there' on a huge high because she's just acquired herself some Take That tickets.

Congratulations on four years. I think I barely had one complete month in the year I did PaD. I think the holiday will help you to recharge. You are a ball of energy. I get tired just reading about all you are doing.--Rene

You sound run down girl! You need to recharge your batteries. That little holiday sounds like just what the doctor ordered... Alternatively - go out and buy that new greatest hits of Dr Hook ( i just saw advertised on telly), pop it on the stereo in that gorgeous candle lit lounge of yours and get DM to give you massage ( and not one of those man massages that lasts about 1 minute 30 seconds! :)

Congratulations on four years. That is a fantastic record.
You really captured the dry leaves of the roses. V
