1st Tired day

Monday was the first day in Swaziland that I really felt tried, like exhausted tired. But then I have been going very hard (although not long hours) since June 26th. With really only one weekend off where I literally shut myself in my apt and did nothing but read and play video games that was 3 weeks ago and after 3 months straight of Swazi/PC stuff + soccer. I have to figure out how to get some time off.

The soccer season ends in mid-December and the office closes down around the same time, so I got that on the horizon.

I left work early went home took a nap, went to a soccer meeting, came home got to bed early and today feel much better.

Oh, all of those bumps are all gone, so Bread and I are both Mange free, although he does get another bath today. He gets one every week for 3 wks with the stuff.

  1. Glad you'll have some off coming up on the horizon ... you need it ... you've been going full-steam ahead ever since you got there. Glad you had a good night's rest, and the mange is cleared up. Love, Dad

  2. Just because you get paid a minimum stipend 24/7 (your readjustment allowance for completion of service) doesn't mean that you can't take a break and rest sometimes. You and Bread need some time to relax. [now to read about work]
