sleep crazy
Yesterday I had a gyn appt. for ultrasound (annual thing) at 11:00 am and my ovaries are fine, thank-you. Done about noonish, so went to grab a soup and sandwich, then to kill some time in a book store. Got to the book store and I just couldn’t talk myself into getting out of the car—-so bloody tired, just exhausted!!! I couldn’t have fought off a kitten and felt exactly like I did ages ago when I had mono. So……..for the second time recently, I took a nap in the car; this time I put on sunglasses so people might think I was just innocently waiting for somebody. It worked, no one came knocking on the window this time. Got awake in about half an hour and went on with my day. Is this strange or what? I spoke to a friend at the gym about it today and he says he thinks something is going around, some virus or something as he’s been napping the past 3 to 4 days and he never takes naps but just hits zero energy and has to in the middle of the day. I’ve know this guy forever and he’s a real energizer bunny—he never stops; so I’m thinking maybe there is something extra in the pollen or a virus this year.
Anyway, I made the gym this morning: tm 1 1/2 mi., rowing 10 min., ladies lite aerobics.
Food was OK (made Ruby’s meatballs, delish!) till I did the annual Easter candy run to the local homemade candy place, about $30.00 of eggs with names, etc.
Hopping on down the bunny trail, chickadees!

Have you ever had low iron levels? I used to get anemic during pregnancies and it felt the same as when I had mono. You’re no sooner up and you want to take another nap…Anyways, hope you’re back to your perky self soon…Happy Easter!

Okay. Have you had any testing done, dear heart? Hopefully, it’s something as simple as adding some sort of dietary supplement = or something particularly noxious in the pollen, or just “something that’s going around” - but it’d be good to know for sure, eh? T’would give ME some peace of mind here, Ms. Close, you know? Thanking you in advance for your anticipated co-operation on this.
Hugs as always,

I used to be exhausted like that all the time. Could you have sleep apnea and you are not getting your yayas from your REM sleep?
Glad to hear your overies are doing fine! That is always a good thing. I like my girl parts and want to keep them as long as possible!
Hugs to you!

Have a Happy Easter Ms. So Close!
I’m wonderin’ about your sleep thing lately. If this continues I’m thinking maybe a trip to the doctor to check if you’ve got sleep apnea might be helpful. Skinny people get it too!
Meanwhile, I’m gonna go try my machine again in hopes that I wake up refreshed…. (hasn’t happened yet - grumble grumble)
