I am tired. We have done a lot lately. Including a wonderful relaxing trip in Maui (I'll write more later) but ever since we returned two weeks ago, I can't get my energy level back up. It could be that we lost a whole night of sleep coming back on the red eye. It wasn't the time but the rude man seated behind us from Maui to Los Angeles. He talked loudly all 6 hours of flight. We changed plans and thought maybe we could sleep on the trip to Portland. Nope. We had the loud "valley girls" behind us. I felt like a zombie on those planes.
Sigh. I feel like I can't get anything done but run grandkids around. Not complaining about the grandkids but that seems to be all I can fit into my day. I have tried to do little things here and there and they don't make a difference in the stack of stuff I need to do. After dinner, I stop. I do some brain games on my tablet and it relaxes me. A glass of milk and then it isn't long before I go to bed. According to my new fitness band, I am getting some quality sleep, at least 8 hours.
During the day, I have been able to walk in a couple of segments to get 10,000 steps in. I signed up for the 10,000 steps a day challenge and am determined to finish it. We have been so busy since we got back that I haven't had much time to go to the gym or swim. I snuck in a couple of rounds of both but really need to get back to my regular schedule.
Next week is the last week of school for the kids. Of course, I have to get them to swimming from 3-4 everyday and a couple of other classes too but I do have most of my day to finish what I need to do. Here is hoping that my energy returns soon!
