running on empty

Thats what I am feeling like right now.  Too much overtime since the end of my vacation.  I have been back since the 12 and have only had maybe one whole day off since then.  Now the money is good, but the energy is draining fast.  Burning my candle at both ends.  I did make myself a promise that I would do no extra projects during overtime.  I have managed to keep the house acceptable and my laundry done.  So I’m happy with that.

Today was a really good day.  We all got together at my brothers house for Easter dinner and had a really good day.  Tiffiny and Justin were there with Corben and he is such a treat because he is all boy.  He took me out into the yard to swing and made me run to the swing while holding my hand.  While we were eating he kept talking about Great papa.  I asked Tiff what he was talking about and she said that they had stopped at the cemetary and Corben left an egg on Dad’s grave.  He had blue coloring around his face and that was from the egg that he left.

I stopped by the cemetary on my way home and as soon as I saw the egg, I broke down becuase again I realize how much I miss my dad.  It usually has not been really breaking down but I am getting tired and not getting much sleep.  So I guess its par for the course.

So as I sit and work a 14 hour night, I will watch the womens final 4 and hope that Uconn gets beat by Baylor, because Baylor beat my tennessee team.  And I hate that fact that my all time favorite coach Pat Summitt got beat and I don’t like UConns coach.  So tonight until we change shifts i’m going to sit here and enjoy the game.  I hope I can make it thru the night.

Hope you all had a good Easter, I feel so blessed to have Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior.  And I am thankful that he has brought my mom back to our family.  Sleep well all and have a good week to come.
