Every Once In A While...

… I can go outside and work in the yard all day long and feel great for the rest of the night and then I can go outside and work 30 minutes and in the early evening hours feel like I have been hit with a "ton of bricks," and can barely keep my eyes open.

Yesterday, was one of those days...  I had about 20 minutes left of weed eating from the day before when my tired body said it needed to stop...  so, I went at it the next day and not feeling tired, decided to work a few minutes with a pic axe preparing a garden bed and after a few minutes of that, my body said it needed to stop.  Mind you, I was not swinging the axe from over my head but was bent over slightly and moving it from my should down into the ground.

Around 7:00 pm, my eyes would not stay open and I felt like I had had no sleep the night before.  I laid on the bed and closed my eyes and did not wake up until 12 hours later.

Sometimes, I think that if I am due for my monthly infusion of chemo that my body reacts inappropriately the closer we get to that deadline.  My Oncologist says that there is no connection but it could be that nobody ever bitched about it before like me...
