Too Old

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!!!
