I'm Tired

Yeah, I'm beat. I normally feel like a pretty positive and energetic person, by no means peppy or hyper but just able to get done what I need to and usually enjoy myself as I do it. But I think I've hit my limit over the last few weeks. Lots of family stuff, work is busy, too many jewelry shows and jewelry projects, and I think it's the combination of work, weekend shows (the time when I usually recharge) and the emotional family health stuff that's really taking it out of me. And of course, stupidly, the first thing I let slide with everything else going on is diet and exercise. So instead of treating my body with extra care during all the stress, I treat it like it's still 20 years old. Yeah, I'm 34 and I don't bounce back quite like I used to. So this week, another busy busy one, I'm going to prioritize and put the health bit back on top. I need to, I really need to. And for some reason I feel like a weakling for being tired. Other people seem to be able to handle a lot of stress and chaos, certainly a hell of a lot better than I do. But again, comparing myself to other people, probably not helping me feel better. Why do we, women especially, treat ourselves so poorly sometimes? Why do I let the voice in my own head talk to me so cruelly sometimes, when I would never speak that way to a friend? Why don't I take my own good advice? Ok, I'm going to bed, and I'm sleeping in tomorrow. Wuss.
