This constant feeling of exhaustion, I mean. I got up in the morning like a wringed-out rag. Doing my morning routine (plus the Mum duty) felt like something waaay beyond my abilities.The only thing I felt up to was to lie down with my iPad and read or play Solitaire or watch YouTube videos. Which I did for the rest of the morning.

Then my friend Evie arrived. We rewrote the play she wants to do with her pupils and then just talked for an hour or more. When she left, I was totally revitalized and felt twenty years younger at the very least. Being useful and having fun can do that to a person. Conclusion: I really need to be among people and get out of the house more often.

I still skipped choir practice, though, since the physiotherapist lady was late and I couldn't have fed Mum lunch before leaving. So we had some improvised stuff and leftover soup after 4pm. Not that skipping choir would have been such a big sacrifice. I mean, I like singing and I like my choir-mates, but Evie was enough "people" for me for one day. *g*

On the crafting front, I've cut out the pieces for a smaller TEDI Teddy clone (I find the original too large) and for a few heart-shaped keyring ornaments. Just to have something easy to sew when the vibe catches me.

Socialising is what keeps us running. Otherwise we are like snails hiding in our shells...

Sometimes I feel as if I've grown into my shell completely. :(

Too much people-in can be unhealthy indeed. But I do miss the daily interaction with kids and colleagues.

Always a delight that happens way too unfrequently.

Having a couple of easy stand-by pieces is always a good idea. Sometimes I just don't want to go for my morning walk, but it really does make a big difference to the rest of my day, if I can just get over that hump.

I know the feeling. Getting out of bed is always the hardest part of the day for me.
