From Monday morning my mind has been on GO! It’s been pulling teeth while herding cats in the midst of putting out fires on the professional work front. Meanwhile my personal Inbox of work overfloweth. It’s the reason some of my slices have been posting really late this week. It’s been a string of “I’ll get to it in a moment as soon as I *fill in the blankety-blank-blank*”. Only I get distracted by this, then remember that and and dammit I forgot about whatever… Next thing I know it’s after 9pm-10pm and I’m pantsing my slices. <– That somehow sounds wrong, but I don’t wanna think about it.

I’ve been mentally flying by the seat of my pants all week and I know those planes of thought -because trains of thought are too slow for my needs right now- are about to crash and burn. Sunday starts daylight saving time for most of the U.S. and I’m so tired the thought of losing that hour on Sunday has me worn out. I don’t wanna…
While the above gif is a THISCLOSE second place, this scene below is the most relatable thing to my brain’s processing capacity right now because I don’t…
At least it’s Friday, I think…right? Right.
Day 10 of 31 – Let’s see how others are slicing it out today…

I love your song and I feel it to the core of my being. A colleague mentioned that it was daylight savings this weekend and I couldn’t believe it! Report card weekend and daylight savings! Gasp!
You gasp, I grumble. We get through it. 😁
This was such a long week. I hope you don’t feel too much of the “Spring Ahead” impact!
Thanks, CJ. Ditto on this feeling like such loooong week. I’m usually not bothered by the time change. Then again, I can’t recall going into already exhausted. Crossing fingers.
It is SO Friday, and the exhaustion is real…I also feel like I have just been floating around in the classroom this week. Hoping a week off will help!
I don’t have a spring break to look forward to, but I do have a long weekend in Atlanta coming soonish. May we all get the rest and recharge we need.
March is brutal! Every. Single. Year. It is the longest month in the school calendar. You are not alone. Sending you April vibes–but that might seem cruel as we face a 47 hour weekend. 🙂
I think March is brutal on any calendar, especially in the U.S. where spring is so close and yet so far. I have a mini vacation planned at the beginning of April, because there in NO way I’m making it to Memorial Day without some time off, so I’ll accept your April vibes. Thanks.
Your exhaustion comes through loud and clear. Time to find a slow boat, grab a spot, and just exist. If you don’t take care of yourself no one else will. A glass, or two, or three, or a bottle of wine would be a good place to start.
Even if I lose an hour of it, I’m hoping the Day of Nothing I planned last weekend follows through this weekend. I need it.
