Unproductive Yet Exhausting Day

I accomplished very little today but I am emotionally and physically drained. My DLSS worker arrived late morning. We went shopping so now I have food. Although I was extremely apprehensive about it we went to the local building supply place to get a couple of small items that will allow me to continue working for a few more days and (hopefully) complete the exterior phase of my project.

This afternoon I tried to work but I was so cold no matter what heavy clothing I put on I kept coming inside to get warm. It was a raw, windy autumn day. Tomorrow is supposed to be even colder. I don’t know why I am so cold. It is not typical for me. Even now, sitting inside with heavy clothing and the thermostat on 72 I’m cold and shivering. I hope it is just a stress reaction. I cannot afford to get sick with the full mouth extraction coming up in just six days!

I am totally exhausted. I have no energy to care about any of the things I should be doing, or the things I normally would enjoy. I’m going to bed early and crank up the electric blanket!

    Whew, ok I should have read this one first before posting my comment to your other entry. I’m so glad to know you have some food now! Sleeping and resting is the best thing you can try to do right now. Take care of yourself. Ask for help if you need.
    Sending you good thoughts and wishes (for what’s worth it…I know that now you need more practical help, hope you get it there!!)

    Hope you’re feeling better today. I don’t see a post for today so I’m really hoping your not down. I’ve been mentally & physically exhausted lately, too, & I have no reason to be. I’m not sure what’s wrong with me. I’m sure I’m not getting sick. You, however, with your chills sounds not so good. So, I hope you’ve gotten past that. You need to be healthy for those upcoming extractions. I wish you the best Paul & hope you are doing much much better today 🙂

    Faithful readers, 🙂

    Thank you for your concern. It means a lot to me! It has been a long time since I was this dysfunctional. I’ve been pushing myself too hard lately and it shows. I’m afraid I am not as healthy as I would like either.
