still tired but feeling ok
Permalink  
 


Hi all,
Today I had these waves of tiredness and slept a lot on the couch. I am in good form but a little worried about how tired I am at times, though I am assured by my fellow members that this is ok.

I am down to 2 boxes from 28, all sorted. I have to go to recycle tomorrow. 5 bags of stuffy. I have the filing cabinets sorted, six years of paperwork filed. It took me five weeks but I am so delighted when I look at it. Yes I still have decisions about what needs to be where but I can think about this and plan it.

I still have to do my taxes, so I have to get onto this pronto tonight. It would be a worry gone if this was done.

I hope you are all keeping well.

Goodness me! *smiling* WELL DONE YOU ! That's a heck of an achievement - I can understand you being delighted !  Great stuff!

And yes, I can only confirm that in my experience, tiredness can affect some of us more than others and some of us for much longer than others.  As long as you get a blood test (if the tiredness persists for a while) just to check all is ok (my liver was damaged- better now though!) then it's probably just the usual 'recovery tiredness' that seems to affect so many of us.

lots of love

No wonder you are tired, sorting through the baggage is exhausting! Definitely my least favorite activity. I have a whole room full of paperwork waiting to be sorted out. Congratulations on getting it done. Taxes are no fun either, but how nice to have some sanity in your life, when approaching this next task.

Fresh air, even if only through an open window, and nutritional suppliments seem to help me with fatigue.


Heartfully,
A.

Imagine how long this would have taken if you were drunk? I still procrastinate...but it was way worse then. Glad things are better Lorna. Hope you have some sunshine where you are at now. I was recently reminded when I started thinking about my life and being a little negative (not saying you are but either way...) "When you wake up tomorrow, be grateful that you woke up and are not coming to" That put me right sized cuz dang...it is something to be grateful for...

Thank you for your supportive posts. It is ironic, I just had that conversation today with a fellow member, about waking up instead of coming too. It truly is something to be grateful for and something I do not want to take for granted.

Cool. Organizing feels great! Chaos is frustrating and frustration leads to anger and anger leads me to drink. Perhaps I should organize more.

Peace,
Rob
