Low energy

When I woke up this morning, it felt just like one of the many lazy day weekend/Sunday mornings I used to have long before my thyroid issues were detected. I woke up, still tired, but this time I forced myself to get up and do something - I had a pilates class at 10:30am that I didn't want to be late for, after all. Managed to hop on the treadmill for a short jog and even did some weights. Went to Crazy Bowls and Wraps for my favorite dish, 'Zesty beans over quinoa'. When I finally got home, the old post Sunday pilates ritual continued - the TV was turned on, and all I did for the next four or so hours was drift in and out of naps because I was so tired. Well, at least until I started to read the "Mockingjay" spoilers.

So much for heading toward normal. I guess I should probably give myself a little slack though since I did just spend the last two days up in Irvine watching my niece swim in the Pan Pacific swim meet - the driving each day really took a lot out of me. Because of how I felt this morning and my much needed naps this afternoon, I'm still a little worried that I may not be able to do a full work day when I go back to work.

I have one more week to do something fun, something for myself before my recovery time is officially over. I've gotten some suggestions to go on a road trip. But, not so sure I'd be able to enjoy that if I'm completely exhausted like I was this morning. I dunno. Any other suggestions? Let me know.
