Boy did I have a lot of energy today! I cannot believe I am the same person that I was during the previous couple of weeks. After dragging my way through such a debilitating low, I am now flying high with energy.
After my usual Monday six-hour shift, I pick up the kids from school and rush over to the customary back-to-back ballet lessons. While one dances, I do homework with the other, and then we switch. Afterwards, we pick up "take out" for dinner and head home to eat and feed the dogs. After baths, stories, prayers, etc. the kids are finally in bed...and I collapse with exhaustion.
Not today!
I vacuumed while the dogs were eating. I hung up clothes while the kids were bathing. I cleaned up clutter. I organized. I cleaned the kitchen through commercials during The Voice. I could not stop. If my husband had not gone to bed, I would have shampooed the carpet!
I do not know where this burst is coming from. Perhaps I am still soaring from Saturday's race. Regardless, this is sure not to last forever. I only wish it would. I like having energy, and being high, and accomplishing things. These are the times when I talk so fast that I sometimes trip over my own words, but it sure beats being quiet and depressed.
I hope this mood persists at least through tomorrow. I have quite a demanding 8 to 6 shift and could use a little bit of today's "speed potion" to make it through the day.
I believe I have finally worn myself down, and it is time to go to bed.
Goodnight dear reader.
