Lat night we arrived back to the hs at 12:30 a.m. Honestly, not too bad for competition day. I was pleased and we feeling tired, but good. By the time we unloaded the truck, tucked all the hs kids into their parents cars, and headed home it was about 1:30 a.m. Still, not too bad. We were in bed and asleep by 2:00 a.m. Although very tired, not too bad!
Until this morning...
I'm getting too old for this! When the alarm went off at 7:30 I though I would die! I rolled over, hit the off button on my alarm and rolled out of bed. (Literally, I had to roll because I couldn't sit up!) My legs are so sore from pulling and lifting equipment for hours yesterday. My back hurts from the bus. I was so tired that I could hardly manage today at church.
Conclusion: I'm not as young as I use to be! There was a day when we would do this kind of thing every weekend. I'd get a few hours rest and pop right out of bed and head to church. Not anymore! I still made it to church, but I sure wasn't my chirpy self. (Because I am the most chirpy person on the planet.)
So, how do you remedy this? You take a three hour nap when you get home. :-)
Now, I MUST get the laundry done, and my small group plans written, and my grad school homework finished!!!
Join the Granny movement! Go to bed!
