Huh? Today? I am really exhausted, I just arrived from work. I was really tired. I am supposed to go home around 6 in the evening, Philippine time from work, but I was not able to do it since I still have lots of things to do in the office. I almost go home around 8 o'clock and I was really exhauted. One of the possible reason of this is possible is becasue I don't have enough sleep last night. Tonight I am planning to sleep early. What about you? Do you feel exhausted today?

to be honest i feel exhausted every day and it is because i am under alot of stress and i have too much to do everyday. my life is overwhelming due to financial problems and trying to make ends meet and keep our heads above water. it is all very exhausting. i woke up tired today and i am dragging my self around to get started with my day. i like to get as much done as i can early because i know i am only going to get even more tired as the day goes on. sad but true. oh well i guess being busy keeps my mind occupied anyway.

I am very very tired and I long to go to sleep, but alas I cannot because my son refuses to go to bed. He is only 16 months and he has been sick lately. If I put him in the crib now, I know I'll be cleaning up vomit in five minutes. When he gets upset he tends to throw up all over the place. I've been up since 1 a.m. and now it is 9 30. When will this day end... please no more vomit!

I have felt exhausted for a period of time. I changed my work one month ago, I don't like the new work, because what i learned in school can not be used in my work. Du to the economic crisis, it is not easy to find a new and good job for me, so the only thing i can do is stay here. the current work always makes me exhausted, what should I do? How can I be happier?

I am not exhausted today. I did not go to office and work recently, but only work from home. I woke up quite late in the morning, around 9 o'clock, then I started working. I took a nap in the afternoon when I was not feeling well, it was almost a 3-hour nap. I'm still online now, when it's 12 in the midnight.

I used to feel that way, but since discovering meditation, I'm doing much better. I meditate for 15 minutes a day and am able to meditate myself to sleep very quickly, and I sleep better at night. I also spend time visualizing my day so that I know what I want to to (and what I need to do) so I get it done without having to consult a list all day long.

I'm exhausted today too. Last night I did not have much sleep because I feel anxious about something I needed to do earlier today. I had to leave my daughter in the care of an aunt while I have a meeting. I had to leave her for about 2-3 hours. I do not know how she would react to my disappearance because she has always been by my side. She's almost two, still very attached to me and me to her. But I put those thoughts at the back of my mind adn went on with the meeting. Had to take a cab so as not to spend too much time on the road with public transport. Raining heavily in teh morning and had difficulty getting a cab just to get to my aunt's. So had to carry my heavy daughter to teh train station to try to get a cab there, higher chances. BUt there was a queue and my daughter was getting restless. So by the time I got to my aunt's, it was late and I had to leave. So there was not much time for my daughter to familiarise herself there. When I came home, my mum was there too. My daughter had been crying and my aunt called for my mum who is living nearby to come over. Then when my young cousin came home from school, she played with him. And was happy. I know that she would only cry temporarily, but I was still concerned. She was so happy to see me. BUt I think it left an impression for her. Now she can't see me out the door, she will cry.

I guess I am exhausted today. I was checking my mail when I received an invitation from tagged from my ex and I didn't realize that he still has that effect on me. I got sad and it reminded me of the things that I need to do. I have dreams that has not come true yet and I don't want him finding me on the same spot he left me. It's really a bummer.

It really rang a similar bell. I sympathise with your hectic schedule and strongly feel that your strategy of catching up early sleep is a very good strategy to tackle the sleep deprivation. You may try light yogic asanas that induce sleep along with low lights and your favorite light music. As an editor in India, I leave in the morning at eight and only arrive at home by eight in the evening. My three year old daughter embraces me tight and half of my exhaustion goes away as my supportive hubby hands me a cup of tea and we chat pleasantly as we plan out dinner. After the kitchenwork, I take a warm bath and light a lamp before the home deity meditating into the flame. As my hubby catches up on the sports, we take turns teaching the child. If I am too exhausted, hubby suggests eating out ocassionally. His warm reassuring embrace helps heal my aching body. I sent a quite prayer to the Lord, gobble my multivitamin with the milk and honey and try to rejuvenate myself with a positive attitude for the next morning.

I was doing a lot of physical work. I cut, haul and split firewood. Then i sell it. At the same time i try to find time to get on mylot to start and respond to some questions. Its hard but i find it just the way life is. Tonight im planning to have a good nights sleep because i have to do homework for Tuesday. I think I'd rather be exhausted by mylot rather then from hauling wood etc. cause then i'd at least feel like i socialized a good amount for the day
