But why am I so tired? I know that I have gotten up early for so many days in a row I've lost count. But exercise is supposed to give you more energy, right? It's not that I haven't gotten enough sleep, either. I actually had a good nap yesterday afternoon. (I'm so thankful that my children are of an age where this is possible.) My mother is coming today for a 10 day visit and I am very excited. I'm just worn out. This weekend we are going to a women's conference and will not be resting. However, hopefully, I will find it refreshing and invigorating. I really need that. Next week, I have two days off and we intend to spend them together doing Mother-Daughter stuff (shopping and dining).
