Feeling tired

[heleninwales]

I wonder why?

Could it be due to walking 30 miles during the five days we were away on holiday, then doing a big shop on the Thursday after we returned followed by a small top-up shop and visiting M on Friday, before leading a walk of 8 miles with 16 people on Saturday, and finally doing a Zoom Quaker meeting on Sunday?

Then yesterday I was rushing around taking the car to the garage for its MOT before walking into town with the shopping trolley to replenish food supplies and then trimming the long grass round the edge of the car park with my new electric grass and shrub trimmer.

I have therefore sent an email of apology to the Welsh chat group and will be resolutely doing nothing in particular today. I also fear I may be coming down with a cold. I did a covid test this morning which was negative, so if the sniffle does develop further it's not the dreaded lurgy, though still annoying. Having said that it could just be a dust allergy flare up. Only time will tell.

Gee, it sure sounds like you deserve a good rest. That's a lot of walking and work.

I hadn't realised quite how much I'd been doing recently until I looked back and realised I hadn't have a restful day doing nothing in particular for about 12 days. I feel much better now.

The "cold" turned out to be just a flare up of the chronic sinus congestion I suffer from occasionally. Vacuuming the bedroom must have helped because I slept well and woke up feeling much better.

That is a heck of a lot of walking! You sure are overdue for a rest day.
