Lacking Sleep
I am just plain weary. Quick trips are tiring, funerals are exhausting, and cold weather is draining. One more week of work, though, and I'll have two weeks off.
I always think I'll get so much done during the holidays—housecleaning, gift buying, decorating, baking, organizing. I usually end up watching a lot of TV, eating poorly, and rushing out on Christmas Eve for last minute shopping. I simply can't bring myself to get anything done early.
This year, I am already two weeks behind on one important project. I am dedicating my entire Saturday to it—after I get done sleeping in and before I have an early dinner with my parents. Dedicating an entire Saturday? Maybe about four hours.
I'm just plain exhausted.
