(no subject)
Aug. 30th, 2009 09:19 amFirst of all, why am I up this early on a Sunday morning when I don't have to be? Oh yeah, I fell asleep on one couch, my brother fell asleep on the other, and the cats decided that my face, not my brother's, was the perfect spot to play chase. Why my brother was given a reprieve from all of the fun, I do not know. Do you have any idea what it is like to be sleeping away peacefully only to wake up to your face being mashed and twisted by cat paws, quickly followed by kitten paws? Yes the kitten is chasing the cat, not the other way around. Mowmowski thinks he is quite the large and ferocious cat despite being tiny, all skin and bones, and only having one eye. (It had a cyst on the other and the only way to save its life was to remove the eye. Hasn't phased him a bit.) The cat is my brother's and the kitten belongs to his girlfriend. We love Mowmowski, not so much the girlfriend.

Well, that is what is exhausting me at home, and work is exhausting as well. I have no place to have any rest. I am coming home from work and falling asleep at 8:00 in the evening. This is coming from a person who has always, even as a small child, been a night owl. It's not uncommon for me to be up until 1:00 am, or it wasn't until the last few weeks. We mailed home the tentative schedules to the students and now everyone wants to make changes. It's utterly ridiculous. I am supposed to be able to leave the office at 3:20 and I am not leaving until 6:00. School starts on September the 8th. There is so much to do before then. I feel exhausted thinking about it. The stress has been causing my neck to hurt again, so I have been doing my stretches that I learned in physical therapy, which has helped. However, I have had HORRIBLE acid reflux and heart burn no matter what I eat and it's all because of stress. I've tried everything, but nothing seems to help, no medicine works for very long. I have a doctor's appointment in the morning about it. I guess that I will have to go on one of the preventative medicines because the reactive ones aren't helping. Keep your fingers crossed!
I think that's about it for an update. Hope everyone is doing well!
