Adjusting
We got back from our amazing trip to the Philippines and Hong Kong early Wednesday morning. I tumbled into bed at 9am PST, and didn't get up till midnight! Henry and I were up half the night together, then got back to sleep around 5 and up at noon. Friday I managed to get myself to work and then crashed again at 8:30pm. I didn't get up until 4pm yesterday! Dave thought I might sleep 24 hours straight through.
So anyway, dinner was in the crockpot by 3am; my Bible study is done for the week. I graded a bunch of papers and made 2 batches of scones, all before church this morning. I fully expect to crash hard around dinner time, but it sure feels good to be coherent again. The fatigue this week was so all-encompassing. When it's so bad like that, I start to worry if I'll ever feel good again - if I'll ever manage to DO anything again. One dinner and an empty dishwasher later, I am reassured.
The trip was worth every bit of exhaustion. I can't wait to tell more about it. Now that my brain is working again, hopefully I'll be able to put some thoughts together.
