I am so glad it is Friday

The eight weeks I worked with another student have made me less strong for this one. I am needing to build back up for all the wheel chair transfers and physical activity. I wake up really early every morning. I did today as well, but I just do not feel motivated. I am looking forward to the weekend, as I may go up to my attic and find Christmas decor. It sounds as if I will be going on a learning journey with other staff from our classroom on the 20th, to observe another class in another town. We will ask that our students be kept home that day so that we may all go. Right now I need to get ready to leave. I will be back this evening.

I hope all the students will remain at home. How quickly our muscles get used to doing less. I don't have the energy to do half what I did 2 years ago.

I am stronger than I was two years ago, as I had to be because of yardwork.

I hope you had a good day and your request for the students to remain home was accepted.

Today was okay. It seems everyone in the whole school is exhausted or sick. I am sure the three families will comply.

I'm not strong enough to do that job at all. I don't decorate for Christmas until after Thanksgiving.

I just want to get my wreaths up while we are having a stretch of good weather. As for the transfers and the diapering and such, I have some techniques I learned working in nursing homes. Sometimes the little guy will assist, other times not. I will not do it next year, I am sure.

Getting up early and working hard during so many weeks make us exhausted.

Yes, and using a lot of mental energy makes it worse.

@GardenGerty I fully agree, not many know that the brain is the organ in our body that consumes more energy.

@GardenGerty I can understand why you would not be motivated. When I have to get up many days early I am tired and wish I could have gone back to bed but have to get up. I am glad it is Friday too.

@GardenGerty So does that mean you start your day earlier?

I want to find my wreaths and hang them before the weather turns bad. I hang seven of them across the front of my house.

I guess it did. I came home, ate, and took a nap, now I am ready for bed.

We could have an attic if we could just make ourselves get up there and tack down the flooring.

Ours does not have flooring, much. I just have the Christmas decor stacked around the access.
