Oh good grief

I am unbelievably exhausted. I should be in bed, but am forcing myself to stay awake so I can watch Barack Obama speak at the convention.


Wednesday was hard at work.  It took me 12 and a half hours to get everything done. And then I'm not sleeping well because I'm stressed. Today I staggered around, yawning at every opportunity. But I got through it.  Got through my second days of my new schedule - my second long work day and my second college day. I can't quite bear the thought of another 12-hour day tomorrow, but at least I can rest at the weekend. Somehow, in between all the homework I have to do. Somehow I'll find some rest time.

I tell ya, being old makes it hard to change. And nothing makes you feel quite as old as being in classes with teenagers.

More at some point in the future. If I can find the energy...

Getting older sucks big time! My whole body is tired by the end of the day. I feel for ya. Hang in there. Hopefully your body will adjust after a few weeks and you won't be as tired.

I can not imagine doing what you are doing- even as a teenager! I bet you are so so so effing tired. Hope you get tons of catch up sleep this weekend!
