So tired

That is how I feel... all the time. I didn't get up today until 11.30 am! I start work at 8... just as well Mum was up to answer the door for the little girl we take to school in the mornings, I never heard a thing!!

I don't seem to have the energy to do anything much except sit in my chair and type, and even doing that saps most of the energy that I have. Whatever this cold thing/virus is, it seems to be worse than a normal cold - I can usually get rid of a regular cold in about four or five days, but I've had this for nine days now and it shows no sign of going. All I want to do is crawl back into bed and stay there... not good when you have to take kids to and from school (though fortunately neither Mum or I have to go out this afternoon, as the little girl is going with her Grandad, and the boys are going with their Dad... so YAY!)

I think that I will have to get some form of tonic - Seven Seas do one that is for times when you feel run down or are recovering from illness... it sure as hell can't hurt, and it may do some good (will have to see if there is any money left come payday).

I was meant to be taking some pics for the nature blog, but it's the last day of September and I still haven't... maybe I will just take one of the tree across the road and make that my subject for seasonal study... it's a big deciduous, so it drops it's leaves and goes from green to many shades of dark red to purple before it gets to bare branches (I have no idea on the species, there are no branches close enough to the ground for me to get a branch for identification purposes... silly owners cut them off at the lower levels!). At least it's close to home, LOL!
