I was tired today

[wiseheart]

After two food runs in the morning, small wonder, especially as it was already quite warm by the time I dragged myself out of the house. It was a heroic feat, seeing that I had to wrestle with the ticket machine at the tram stop to buy my monthly card for public transportation. It's always a hassle, as the interface is so shitty, and between two occasions I trend to forget where they hide the exact item I need.

So, I bought all the food, then fried the fish for lunch, and - after having added a few scenes to my current writing project - I decided to take a nap because I was completely useless. My "little" nap lasted an hour and a half, but I felt much better afterwards. Not good enough to do anything else than watching some telly, but still.

As somebody put once, getting older isn't for cowards.

I napped for half an hour as well after work ... and would have napped longer if there hadn't been some noise outside that woke me up.

Yeah, I know the feeling. We've got a kindergarten, a football place and two playgrounds right next to our building.

Yay nap!

A fine thing indeed. ;)

Might be worse for old ppl these days.

These days is the clue. I remember my Grandma when she was the same age and she was so full of life and energy, I don't know how she did it.
Welcome to my rambling place, BTW. How did you find the way here?

Just like everybody else, I've been noticing a reduction of f-list posts so I'm trying to replenish my friends. Now, however, I'm attempting to build a following for a community, so I'm sending out invites left and right. Basically, I'm subscribing to ljer's to see how active they are and the ppl I like, I add to my blog

Lol. It certainly isn't. Not having the energy to tramp around all day is very frustrating.

[wiseheart.livejournal.com]

Yes, there's so much I'd like to do, and I just can't bring up the energy to do it!

I nap every day, could not make it without one. We live across the street from an elementary school and the kids at recess can sound like magpies (when school is in session, at the moment, it is not). However, I am hard of hearing, so the older I get, the less I hear them - heheh. Old age is good for something.

Indeed. We've got a kindergarten (=playschool?) right under our noses, and they're open around the year, with just a short summer break. Lately the kids seem to be imagining that they're fire engines - you can imagine the noise, yes?
