Lack of…
Lately I’ve noticed that I’ve had a lack of a lot of things…energy for one. I’ve been exhausted beyond belief. At first I just thought that it was because of menstrating, but I really doubt that…I’m fatigued. I haven’t been sleeping well at all lately. I wake up several times throughout the night…no reason…I just wake up.
When I do get a chance to sleep in, I’ve been waking up with back pain…and so I wind up getting up anyway. I don’t understand what’s causing that either…but it’s there.
Plus, I have this stupid internal alarm system…my body just doesn’t allow me to sleep for more than a certain number of hours a night 
’tis not fair I tell you.
I’ve also had a lack of tolerance lately…for many things. I deal with a number of people at work that aren’t exactly the brightest bulbs…so my patience and tolerance for stupidity is about depleated. I think that it’s caused me to be short with people at home as well, and that I don’t like. Kids are kids…I expect them to do stupid things, that’s how they learn. However, I have no patience for it at all right now.
Hmm…maybe it is just the mentrating thing…ya think?

It might be a hormone thing. Do you feel and sleep better when you don’t have your period?
Waking up with back pain though…hmmmm…is your mattress not as supportive as it could be?
You do have a lot on your plate though. Mom, wife, daughter, and overworked employee are many hats to wear. I wish you could take a vacation!
{{{hugs}}} Try and get some time to relax if you can Maria!

I agree with Daisy you do have a lot on your plate . Hopefully its not long before you go to Disneyland
It wouldn’t kill you to consult with a doctor. Could be a mild case of depression.
How often do you go to games? Maybe we could work out some kinda little trade on freebie handouts! Want a texas Ranger magnetic calendar?
Lorie~ I don’t really sleep better without my period…but it most certainly doesn’t help…ya know?
Also, I have a wonderful mattress…so I don’t think that’s the problem.
Juls~ We leave to go to Orlando in 31 days!! I can’t wait!
Mark~ Thanks for your concern…I was diagnosed with depression 3 years ago…but to be honest, I don’t feel depressed…just exhausted. And we go to about 1 game a month during the season…well, atleast we try to.
Not a big Rangers fan though…but thanks for the offer! 
lack of energy here too……been sleeping late too which needs to stop soon….. spring break dosen’t last forever!
Too many things coming down the pike….that happens to us all and it causes exhaustion and yes a bit of depression at times
Always job openings at my work place. New ones every day it seems. And more to come I know.
I feel energetic and refreshed on average one day in ten. Bleh.
Sometimes all the pressures combined with our monthly crap becomes a little overwhelming. I hope things are improving for you!
You’ll be OK honey. And no matter what else, I’ll be with you.
