200th Post

I wanted my 200th post to be.....

Monumental!
Epic!
Life Changing!


Sigh.  I got nothin.


I'm sitting here on the couch watching Missouri Valley Conference basketball, snacking on semi-sweet chocolate chips (out of the bag) and just trying to feel something close to normal.

The past week has been rough. I haven't been "sick", but just run-down. The weather, school, Stats class, the weather, basketball, lack of exercise, THE WEATHER, have all been wearing on me and there are times where I just want a few minutes to just breathe.

Towards the end of the week my tank was running on empty. Friday I wanted to stay home from school so badly, but I was out Thursday for a math curriculum meeting, so I sucked it up and went. In the afternoon I felt a migraine coming on, so I took some "magic" pills as I call them and fortunately they worked. Having the bell right at the end of the day was music to my ears.

I did end up feeling good enough to go play rec league volleyball on Friday night. Did I overdo it? Sure, I always do, but at least it was physical activity, which I haven't had since Monday.

Today, my day has consisted of sleeping late, getting out with Matt to shovel the driveway (it snowed last night) and trying to stay hydrated. We have a women's basketball game tonight and I'd like to be able to enjoy the game.

Hmmmm. Maybe I should go take a nap.

      I appreciate the encouraging words. :-) I will not complain at all this summer about it being too hot.

      Thanks so much. This winter has by far been one I would like to forget. I can handle snow, but the cold has just been brutal.

      I'm impressed with your bravery in answering the questions!

      Part of me wants to just take a week unpaid and head south to warmer weather. Sigh.

    You spoke/wrote your truth. That makes it a good 200th post.

      Thanks. I know every post doesn't need to be Pulitzer material, but I do want to make it worth a person's time to actually read. :-)

      I slept for a good three hours. I'm still feeling drained, but at least I slept. :-)
