I Paid The Price

Last night I robbed Peter to pay Paul and today I paid the
price. I chose productivity over sleep and stayed up VERY
late to finish the last two loads of laundry (because once
I get motivated, it's very hard to get unmotivated).
Around 1am I caught a third wind and ended up sitting in
the tub reading until after 4am. I didn't fall asleep
until almost 5:30am. At that point I couldn't decide which
would be better. Just staying up. Or getting 3 hours of
sleep. I chose the sleep, figuring something was better
than nothing, but it might as well have been nothing. I'm
exhausted and I have no one to blame but myself.

I didn't want to forfeit a day at the gym simply because I
was tired, so I opted for a more low impact workout. I
swam laps. Breaststroke:backstroke, back and forth for
almost an hour. It was so relaxing. Afterwards I went in
the jacuzzi, then the sauna, and then the steam room. It's
nice having a gym membership :) I came out feeling much
better than I did going in. I was very sore and stiff from
all the squatting I did yesterday (cleaning and sorting
laundry). I'm not sure if I would have been able to make
it through work tonight if it wasn't for the exercise pick-
me-up.

There wasn't anything outstanding about work tonight. It
was an ordinary night. Thankfully it wasn't too busy,
because there was no way I was going to be able to multi-
task very well. Rebecca wasn't in a very productive mood
either. So we complimented each other well. By around 7pm
I started to feel that second wind kicking in and the rest
of the evening went well.

It's a little after midnight and I still need to pick up
the place. I hate it that Amy lets the kids mess up the
house and doesn't clean the kitchen after she cooks
dinner. Although, I've never told her she had to do those
things. It just drives me crazy that I leave them in a
clean house and after working all evening I come home to a
trashed mess that I have to clean all over again. I think
I'll have a talk with her. I pay her enough. She can wash
a dish once in awhile and put a few toys away. Nothing was
ever accomplished by complaining. I need to make my
grievances known... Ciao.
