Exhaustion.....almost self-pity

Well, it is that time of the month, not the female time, but the anemic time.  Time to get my B-12 shot, and until I do so, I am out of energy, and sleeping later and later.  My get up and go has got up and went. 

When I get like this, I am vulnerable to the pity pot.  I don't get to my meetings like I need to, and I get into my head more than I should.  Plus, my daughter and the munchkin left for Michigan last night.  To add to my self-pity, I was invited to go camping over Labor Day weekend, and I have to turn it down due to the fact that I am scheduled to work.  I can't get off, and I am feeling sorry for myself.  I worked Memorial Day weekend, and the Fourth of July weekend this summer as well.  I did not work on Memorial Day itself, but that Saturday and Sunday.  I did work the Fourth this year, but I volunteered for that.  It is the luck of the draw that I am scheduled for those weekends, as I work alternating weekends.  I need the money, and can't just take the weekend off.  I am upset because I so desperately need the money I can't take it off and have a nice weekend before I return to school the following week.

So, I am hoping to schedule a week in Michigan to visit my daughter.  Not sure how I can swing it financially, but I will try.  I want at least one week away from this area, and I can't afford a hotel or a real vacation.

I have to get my butt to a meeting as soon as I can.  The good news is, I am not interested in drinking, BUT, my food has gone berserk, and I am in danger of gaining weight.

Hugs,
Trish
