I am pooped!

I made it through my longest day at Guitar Center. I picked up a Casper's hotdog on the way home, and will check emails and MyLot comments before I "crash." My students did well at Guitar Center today, but the daughter of one of my students (actually a couple that I teach guitar to) has a bad flu, so only daddy showed up. I hope the child is OK. Have you ever been pooped at the end of a work day?

I'm sure you are so tired. And then only a hot dog...you need to come home and have a good dinner! You know, meat, vegetables, etc....I hope you do not get the bad flu. Take care of yourself.

@TheHorse I used to be. Since my son has been ill, it's a crap shoot. I try to take advantage of naps to fill in the lack, but often, a nap isn't possible. Some days are just better than others.

I hope you get lots of rest tonight. I was always tired after working 44 hours in four days. That only happened when someone called in sick.

I sure have. That's why I retired three years early.

I often came home pooped from work. It's nice now to wake up and mostly have absolutely nothing that absolutely has to be done.

I always used to be mentally tired from stress. Now I'm just tired all the time from lack of sleep. I hope you got a good night's rest. Have a great day.

I was pooped by mid-day on Tuesday and took a nap as soon as I got home from the Centre (about 1pm).

I realized today that I took half of a benadryl yesterday, due to a sneezing fit. That may have contributed to my being really tired by the time I got home yesterday. I hope your nap was joyous.

I have been poop often at the end of the day! Now it is interesting that you teach guitar! I am 62 and just decided to pick up the acoustic guitar we have at home and learn how to play!

@TheHorse I am glad. It's 6:30 A.M., I have to go out in half an hour to pick my our weekly magazines in Italy. It's cold outside.

I was always pooped at the end of work days. I guess if that's not the case, one is doing it wrong. lol
