Exhaustion

Sometimes things have a way of catching up with you, grabbing you by the neck and shaking you... All while screaming, "Why, damn you, why?!"

That is me right now.

I'm being violently shaken around, ears ringing from my brain shouting from the pain, my body about to collapse in a heap on the floor.

This past week has been so busy that I'm just reeling from it all unable to find my bearings and which direction to head in.

I'll recover from this, I always do. I just overbooked, overworked and over-exhausted myself to the point of dead on my feet.

Nothing new.

I just feel extra tired right now and in desperate need of a vacation that allows me to enjoy myself, my husband and my children.

I need silence.

But since none of this is possible, I'll settle for chocolate... And a steamy romance novel.

Oh and kids that go to bed at a decent hour.
