Last night (so I found out this morning) my “presence” was requested for some online fun, by more than one party.  I apologize to those who perhaps missed me last night, but I was quite under the weather and turned the ringer off on the phone and didn’t even go on the computer.  I spent the evening in front of the TV with my pillow, as I was tired but didn’t want to sleep.  I know that I watched TV, but I can’t remember what it was, as I wasn’t really able to get into it.

Have you ever let let life’s stresses build up so much that it sucks every ounce of energy from your body and leaves nothing for basic movement? You know, when the very effort of sitting up is too much to bother with at the time? If you do, then you’re getting the picture of why I didn’t sit up at my computer chair or even open the possibility of a phone conversation.

I think that its the new pace that work is leading to.  I’ve been reassigned to a client whose busy season is now and the quadrupling in the number of calls that I receive, plus the added hours, is taking a bit to get used to.  I think that part if this is my own fault because I actually care, for the most part, for each caller that I speak with.  I don’t like ending a call with the person on the other end not being at least enlightened as to why they have a confusion or plight.  That kind of emotional investment does sap you.  You should always pay it forward, though.  You always get out what you put in.  It may not happen at the time, but later, when you need it (I know, that’s called hope).

So, I’m somewhat recharged and may show up online today, depending on my exhaust system on the car.

    I know where you’re coming from all too well. As everyone kept telling me, you gotta take care of yourself. Otherwise, you’re gonna be worthless to everyone anyway. So, don’t feel guilty for getting some much needed veg-out time.

    There’s always tomorrow :)

    I understand about the need to shut off the world for a while, Corey! I’ve been there too many times myself! Keep your chin up and your spirts enlightened so that tomorrow you can fight the good fight!!!
