Act Your Age

Chim is happy as long as he can sleep on the Big Bed.

Some random sleepiness bug has hit Linda.  She is tired almost all the time.  A few days it was because she only got 3 hrs and 5 hrs sleep (2 nights in a row) but that was earlier this week. The hike Thursday and Combat she taught made her sore, but in a good way.  It seems like she is sleeping OK now and shouldn't be going to bed at 9:00 p.m. having a hard time waking up at 6:30 a.m.  If it wasn't for Chim insisting she let us outside, she would have slept later and just rushed to work. (Linda likes to get out of bed 2-3 hours before she has to leave the house to teach.)  Last night when she got home at 6:20, she ate some random leftovers for dinner and sat down to rest. She was dozing on the couch until she went to bed a few hours later.  Maybe teaching two hours of Body Pump and then running, jumping, kicking and punching with 6 young boys in TKD class might have had something to do with her lack of energy.  Today is a long day (8:45-1:30) at the gym.  Between 1:30 Saturday and 8:30 Monday morning, she is not going to do any exercise or heavy chores.  Her body might catch up and things will be back to normal. Or maybe this is just what happens when your body gets old and tells you to slow down and act your age.  "No Way!" says Linda, she wants to keep her teaching jobs.  There will be a time where she has to slow down and find a desk job, until then she'll keep moving.
I like a bed in the sunshine
