Do some dishes, go to bed

In spite of my four hour nap, I have no energy. Bob went to Wendy's and got us double stack burgers, which we ate with a microwaved sweet potato instead of fries. I have been symptom free without medication for over 24 hours, so I shall go to work tomorrow. I think it is time I learn to earn from home. It felt good to take naps the last two days. I could do that if I worked for myself. Hopefully there is some sunshine tomorrow for us. The weather is warmish, but overcast. I have a number of dishes piled up, soup bowls, etc. so I should wash a few before bed. The cats have been fed. I have showered, and brushed my teeth. Nothing really left to do. I think I have read more of your discussions the last two days than I have been able to lately.

You sound like you are rested up and feeling yourself again. I hope that you have a good day at work tomorrow, don't overdo it.

I think the mental part of working is the hardest.

@GardenGerty For me it is the energy needed to keep those wheels turning in the head.

@GardenGerty You're going to love retirement once you get there.

I did not write much here either the last months! But, I am working on it.

Sometimes I feel like all I have are boring things. I try to get here twice a day, but sometimes there are conflicts or emergencies.

I always hate to let the team down.

@GardenGerty I know what you mean. I never liked letting people down either.

I really dislike even admitting I feel bad.

You must have really needed that extra sleep. I hope your get-up-and-go comes back soon.

It would be beneficial to get extra sleep a bit more often.
