A few hours in my cave, endorphins & a big Diet Coke!

I don't know why I keep forgetting. There are a few things that 'fill' my cup ,I know this, but when I am tired & awnry I also suffer from memory loss. The things 'TO' do overwhelm the list of 'WANT' to do's. Evidently, deadlines work for me. Our family round robin quilt extravaganza is underway & the 1st deadline is July 1st, so I buried myself in my craft room, put on a extremely watched movie & began to sew, pretty much heaven as far as I'm concerned...
Sunday came and alas, I was just plain exhausted. We had no Diet Coke in the house. So I opted for a power nap....it lasted 3-1/2 hours, I woke up feeling like I had been sucker punched. The only remedy (in my mind) was a soda. It really is disgusting how addicted I am. Long story short, I never found one. I fell asleep at 11 pm, which is so not me especially since I had slept so long in the afternoon. I was depressed and having a pity party.
The next morning, I woke up not wanting to run ONE little step, but I went anyway. (It is just not right to get up & move 2 hours before any of the children do). I felt like a slug & was not looking forward to the day...memory loss, I tell you...

Later, as I was driving home from dropping kids off, I stopped & got a Diet Coke. Even later that day I had the nice euphoric thought that I LOVED my life. Was it the quilting, the running or the Diet Coke????? Mmmm....I better not stop doing any of them....
