It is most likely a combo of illness , winter blahs , and an unproductive meeting at work.
I hope find a few things on the plus side helps. I find a day where I get a few annoying things done, a self indulgent yet healthy meal a glass of win and an engrossing movie or book and a good long sleep help the blahs. They don't exactly go away , but they diminish. Unless I am getting sick. then I just have to deal with that.
I hope tomorrow is better Anne.
I never really learned to do all my homework in high school. But somehow , I did my work in college. Maybe because I t matter ed more , or because no one cared in the short term? Not sure. But a zero in a class is not ok.
went up the Eiffel Tower
I thought it was totally worth the wait and the price.
Aw, Jesse.
So my neighbor offered me a small piece of good dark chocolate as I was on the way to the pool. And I swear I had a sugar crash 30 minutes into my swim. I haven't had a slog like that in a while. Slow,sure, but getting through by sheer will? Uhg.
I have to take Grace to UCLA for a sleep study tonight. The 405, one of the major freeways, is partially closed. I am supposed to be there at 8:30. DO NOT WANT any of this.
Man, I'm tired already.
Parenting just plain sucks sometimes. It really shouldn't be this exhausting considering the ages of my kids.
Been a pity party kind of night. So instead of worrying about the dishes, boxes to pack, packed boxed I can't move, and so much else, I'm working. The one thing I can do without needing someone else.
::hugs everybody (who wants it)::

Sometimes I think it gets more exhausting. The older they are, the more serious the mistakes they can make, you know?
Downton Abbey was, as usual, my cathartic crying moment of the weekend. Whoo.

Quite true. At least KCD and B back me up with the current crap. Not that they haven't before, but it is that reassurance that I'm not nuts.
You're really not. And I'm glad they're supporting you.
Eiffel Tower, woo!
My parents and I installed the laundry sink in the garage that they are giving me for Chanukah. We have been trying to find time to shop for one, etc., since Thanksgiving and today was the day. I fell on my old one at one point and broke the basin, although not so badly that it was unusable, and it was always precarious in the sense that a slight nudge could make it drain all over the garage floor, which was very bad as the washing machine drains into that line. I got pretty good about checking all the plumbing connections before every load of laundry, but that was a PITA. The new sink not only is not broken and drains smoothly, it's bolted to the wall and has a cabinet for tidy under sink storage. Pretty sweet! And we got it all in place and working in one day and only three trips to Home Depot, which none of us really expected.
Then I had a Moscow Mule at dinner, which was tasty but way bigger than I expected. Pretty good buzz going on right now.
