A Day in the Life

My day starts around noon when I wake up from a previous shift or a much-needed day off. It takes a while to fully wake up and start moving. When I finally do, I am able to get much of the things done that most people have to wait until after they get off to get done. If I have nothing to get done before the start of my shift I ponder around the house. I move slow and take things in time. I am recharging you see, trying to get back that mental energy to look past the aches and pains that my body is throwing at me. Then I have to stock my emotional bucket with enough caring and sympathy to get through the shift. If I have time or energy I will do something to take care of myself, like yoga, stretching, or working out. A lot of days though that doesn't happen. I have spent too much time trying to recharge. This is especially true near the end of the workweek.
