Too Tired

It's been awhile since I wrote an entry. I am too tired to do anything after work. My energy level by 3:00 p.m. on a regular work day is nearing its limit. By the time I go home, cook and eat dinner, my energy level is zero.

When I go home, I only use the computer for about half an hour and that's it. I am too tired to use it. I am so tired that when I lie down to take a rest, my body feels so heavy and I can fall asleep in a second. I normally sleep just before midnight but the last couple of weeks, I'm sleeping by 9:00 or 10:00 in the evening.

This week I'm back to my full hours at work, seven hours with one hour lunch break and 15 minutes break in the morning. Before I got sick, I have no problems working at least seven hours a day, sometimes even without lunch breaks. But now, seven hours feels like an eternity. I'm exhausted by the end of a working day.

Sometimes I wonder if I went back to work too early. I might have been mentally prepared to work but my body is telling me a different story. It's telling me to slow down when I need it. "Screams" at me when I do too much. I gotta listen, listen, listen. Let my body do the talking. ;)
