I don't know what it is with me lately. I don't feel like I have enough energy. ALL I want to do is sleep. Barring that, I'd love to curl up in some warm blankets with a hot cup of tea and read ceaselessly.
However, little bug would much rather have my attention, and I KNOW she would love to leave the house more often. I'm paying a premium for rights to go swim in the warm pool at the Y, and we haven't gone at all in the past two weeks. On work days, I come home feeling exhausted and still have dinner and bath to navigate. On weekends, I barely have the motivation to run our necessary errands like grocery shopping. Bug really needs more than a library trip once a week, especially since the weather is brutally cold and Dad doesn't take her out during the week.
Sigh.
So, I'm always about finding the cause of things, with the hopes of finding a solution. So, what could be the causes of my exhaustion?
C1: Bug waking me up to nurse in the middle of the night each night.
S1: Wean her. I plan to do this over spring break, when I can sleep in if needed
C2: Laziness begats laziness.
S2: Become acquainted with the treadmill at the Y or go for walks with bug.
C3: Some sort of chemical/hormonal imbalance.
S3: The days are slowly getting longer. The sun should be back in a week or two, I need some of it!
No definitive causes or solutions, and nothing I can do immediately except perhaps make a serious effort to hit the Y this evening and take bug swimming.
