The Weight of Tired
Have you ever been so tired...
I have too many books on the shelf to read. More in a plastic tote marked "miscellaneous" tucked away in storage. I put those there because they might be moldy, but it broke my heart to think of throwing them away.
Just downloaded another to my Kindle. Knowing full well it may be years before I remember, and more before I even start reading it.
My eyes burn, I'm so tired. But my body is like lead and won't allow me to climb the stairs to retire.
It's only 3:38 PM. If I sleep now I'll be awake all night. If I don't at least nap I'll be ruined tomorrow.
Decisions like these are harder than anything that might tip the scales of my fate.
Have you ever felt so tired, death seems easier?
At least I already took a shower.
