I felt completely recharged when I went to work this morning. I had no qualms about feeling cold, drowsiness or tiredness. When I was sitting on the bus, I asked myself why I wasn’t feeling like this for the past few days. Instead, I felt I needed a break from my daily routine, particularly, waking up too early in the morning. And I did have a break for two days.
For the first time, I felt that the weekend wasn’t enough for rest and all sitting-pretty musings. I woke up the next day in a drowsy mood and a clogged nose that could be unclogged by some herbal medicine. Being in that state of “almost sick”, I called the office and asked for a (sick) leave. Granted. I had a quiet and long sleep while hubby was out working. One moment I was listening to the radio, the next moment I was eating. That was the kind of break I needed for two days. I thought my conscience would bother me for taking a couple of days off work when I didn’t have to. But what I felt this morning was completely what I needed to face the days ahead.
I might be a compulsive doer of anything I want to do but I am also a stubborn person when the need for a break arises. I rest and when I start again, I’m more motivated than ever.
Aside from all the sick stories and leave and why I wasn’t in all spirit to start my week right, I was stucked thinking about the things I wanted to do in my spare time. And how I get disappointed because none of those things were done yet. It makes me tired thinking about it that sometimes I thought a short break would get me started with one but that was far from done.
Hey there. Yeah, sometimes work is definitely exhausting, not just physically but mentally and emotionally as well. There are days when I just want to be home, sleep in, and just have some me time or sometime with my family. I can never get enough of the weekends. Anyhow…the weekend is coming up. Hope you have a great one. =)

Ana, you remind me of pollen allergy. I usually get cough and headache in spring because of this.
