Exhaustion

Well, I’m still here and still breathing.

Work simply exhausts me. I don’t know why, but when I’m on the road I just cannot sleep any more. Once upon a time, I’d go to a nice hotel on a layover and crash out for ten or more hours straight. Now, I just…can’t. If I get 4-5 hours per night of sleep I’m going good.

Believe it or not, but even with the kids frequently waking us up, I get more rest at home than I do alone in hotels at work.

Isn’t that sad?

I got home from work yesterday, feeling energized and ready to hit the ground running. Two hours later, though, and it was like I’d used all my energy for the week and I simply crashed out.

So, I’m here. I’ve just not been awake long enough since I’ve been home to write anything. I’m hopeful that will change soon.

Thanks for being patient.

Does work just exhaust you, too?
