Yesterday, I left school as soon as logistically possible, got into my car and drove, with one of my closest friends, almost three hours to another state to hear live music. We drank, we ate, we danced, we talked and we laughed. I rolled home at 2:15 am, only to wake up three hours later next to my youngest child, who wanted to know if it was time to wake up.
The activity of my life carried me through until now, when I lay down, once again, beside my youngest to help him off to sleep. There are dishes that need to be done, laundry that is overflowing, and a thousand details that were pushed aside for today.
I feel like a truck has slammed into me and I have no idea how I will make up for this tomorrow, especially since I will have one less precious hour.
But I promised myself that I would write every day in March. So, I wrote.

Ha, this short and sweet post was funny. I hope you are able to recover tomorrow. It seemed like a fun night, but a short night of sleep.

You did write! On three hours of sleep, no less! More than a little admirable, I think!

Sleep deprivation is tough, but never give up the chance to hear live music with friends! Life is short. Hope you get to nap tomorrow!

You had fun. You got home to your kids. And you did write. Those are the essentials.

Amazing what our MIND thinks we can do but our BODY corrects that kind of thinking quick! Hope you recover fully by Monday!

You did it! I could totally relate to that feeling of rolling in, glad that I did something with friends, but soooooo tired and so many things to do!

It is so important to not say later, “Why did I not go with my friends?” From what you have written, it sounds like you had a blast. You will be happy for those memories even though reality hits hard in the morning.

Good for you for writing anyway! I am in the same boat–too late nights with friends–a little too old to bounce back the way I still should, but I’m pushing myself to stay up to write anyway. I like your ending. That’s always what I have the hardest time with when I’m trying to write a slice quickly…..but yours does such a nice job of summing up the point
