WAS I REJUVENATING???

 

I think there’s a saying about how, “what a difference a day makes.” Well, in my case, it’s more like, “what a difference a night makes.” As I type this I wonder if I go back to bed for the second time today (Saturday) whether I’ll get up feeling more like the way I felt pretty much this whole year so far, or if I’ll get up still feeling “blah.”

There wasn’t anything unusual about my night. I believe I slept well and yet I could hardly keep my eyes open the first time I got up at 6:30 am. I was back in bed before 7:10 am, Kuma watered, latte drank and slept for more than another hour. Sitting here typing I feel like I could go back to bed for the whole day. I have no energy whatsoever and it’s hard to keep my eyes open.

It's not like I have a huge “to-do” list, although I do have one. It’s not like I worked my ass off yesterday. The human body, or at least my human body, is a wondrous mystery. Is it trying to tell me something by being so tired? Am I too out of tune with my body to recognize the message? Is my mind playing tricks on my body? I just don’t understand how I can go from feeling great one day to feeling so tired in simply a matter of hours…hours that were supposed to re-energize me.

So, I guess I’ll simply ignore the to-do list and take myself back to bed and see if more rest will give me more energy. Lord knows I really hate feeling the way I feel right now.

Well, Kuma and I did spend the entire day in bed. I put on Netflix and watched most of a rather boring program, “Runaway.” We did get up to make and eat lunch, but that was it. Now, as I type this so I can post it, water is heating to boil spaghetti noodles for my dinner. The salad’s already made and it won’t take long to fix some garlic bread.

I guess I could be rather depressed about “wasting” an entire day, but I’m going to choose to look at it as a necessary rejuvenation…nine great days followed by one that, I hope, will renew me for another nine plus???
