66 notifications... No energy

United States
May 19, 2019 4:15pm CST
I just got home. Was gone all day yesterday until, well, 20 minutes ago. I'm tired, I'm sort of moody, and I just want to lay back and relax. 66 notifications don't seem like my way to relax though, and so I think I'll just get offline for awhile, if not the rest of the day. An update, with photos, to follow.. Just ya know, not at the moment. Have you ever had one of those "Best of intentions" kind of days?

The first half of the day was spent on the road, literally... So I think I deserved a bit of downtime.

Offline is always a good choice for me I think. Online seems to stretch into all day! Today, I am using a timer!

Today I need to be online for most of the day if only to catch up on things I've let fall behind the last two days. I may be on mylot a lot as well as I have some goals for here for this month. I need to save up money for a few things over the summer. Mylot seems to be the best (most fun) place to help me earn a bit of gumball machine change. Maybe I should set a timer for myself though. How long are you giving yourself?

@paigea 15 minutes per site seems fair enough. I'd have to up that a little bit. 30 minutes per would be better for me, but then I do surveys. I also found a site where you review movie trailers and shows and rate them. I just found it today. Some of the reviews say that their payment is delayed and that they always blame amazon. I am going to try the site out for a bit, but I won't hold my breath. I think it's worth it though because it seems to be one of the faster sites to get points on.

@ScribbledAdNauseum In the morning I was giving myself 15 minutes per site. Swagbucks, myLot, mystery shop forum, FLylady, Weight Watchers and my e-mail. That was 1 1/2 hours. Then, when I sat down to eat, etc. I spent more time, but still set my timer so I wouldn't get stuck on internet. When I watch TV I am also on internet.

I've been doing that a lot too lately @ScribbledAdNauseum I think my body already knows its almost time for that stupid time change.

@rebelann Yeah my body always has a hard time adjusting to the time change especially in the fall.

Been so long, I think I might have taken a nap. Surprised I didn't have a "best of intentions" type day today. I slept in longer than I wanted to.

Yesterday I was not in my best mood, the notifications never ended, I had stomach ache, I would have liked to go to bed and do nothing.

I had some stomach problems as well. I had eaten some mexican food at a restaurant on the way home. It didn't hit me until I got home (three hours later) and so I was lucky. I hope you are feeling better today? I got home and just felt sort of depressed and just stressed with the home situation. I had to de-compress I guess.

@LadyDuck Oh I see. I think the rain is probably causing you to feel sleepy just as much as the sickness you felt yesterday.

@ScribbledAdNauseum I ate a kind of cheese that I know I should not eat, I am fine today, but I still feel sleepy.

@ScribbledAdNauseum Often. And I agree getting away from here until you feel better is the way to go! I hope you feel more brighter later after some much needed rest!

I am feeling somewhat better, atleast enough to attempt to get through my other notifications and the responses here. I just needed to de-compress.

@VivaLaDani13 I am feeling much more prepared to get back to work (including mylot!) this morning. I'm not prepared for these warmer temperatures! Just not ready for 80's and 90's.

@ScribbledAdNauseum I understand. Do as much or as little as you feel like. No doubt everyone here will understand and will be more concerned about how you feel anyway.

Do not worry, it's important to rest. Yes, I often have such a feeling,

It just came over me suddenly. I had been up in the mountains earlier in the day and came home to a mess of things to tidy.

@Nevena83 YEs, it is good when we are aware that we need a break. I remember once that I worked so hard over such a along period of time that I ended up making my sick. I became dehydrated and developed a UTI. I had to take a few days off of work. I was upset with myself because I hadn't been aware that I was driving myself to such extremes.

I am going to try to get through some of these notifications tonight, but I'm not going to stress it. I need to catch up on the household stuff tonight. I was in Western NC yesterday and today.

Yep, I've had days I get on my PC and then I sit and watch some of my favorite series before I can even consider beginning to work.

Yes, often. Many times I am too tired to answer to notifcations. You can answer tomorrow or when you feel better.

My worry is that I will lose some of my notifications / not be able to answer some.

Thank You. I am feeling a bit better than I was. I just needed to mentally decompress I think, and nothing helps that better than a shower.
