February 19, 2011- Lingering Jet Lag...

     I couldn’t believe I was able to stay up all day on Tuesday when we arrived back from Honolulu to Kwajalein. Generally, with only 4 hours sleep, I would have conked out on the couch early in the evening or even taken a mid afternoon nap when the boys went back to school, but I didn’t. I stayed busy catching up around the house and went to bed at my normal time.  I continued to be amazed at how I was able to open the center at work twice this week, including today, at 6:45, then work until closing at 5:30 the previous day, meaning I was the last one out and first one in yesterday and today. Well, I know what happened now. My adrenaline at being back and focused on catching up with my boys, job, and home kept me going because tonight, I am flat exhausted! The lingering jet lag has caught up with me. I could barely get back up off the bed to tuck the boys in.  It will be good to rest up over the 3 day weekend and finally get the jet leg out of my system! So, I must bid you adieu and say, in the words of the Von Trapp family from the Sound of Music, “good night, farewell, Auf wiedersehen, goodbye...”
