In my first or second week, I was asked to volunteer to work the warehouse sale. Help set up on Friday night for a free box. Work the sale on Saturday and get a lieu day. I signed up for both. It was said that I might not have to work, until our “friends and family” sale made a local popular blog. At that point it was all hands on deck.
Meanwhile my BFF calls to say we’ve been invited out … on the same Friday. I agree to go.
I get up at 6:30-ish every morning as I have to get my workout in!! 😛 The “work” day was cut short for those doing the set up. So from 3:30-9pm I opened boxes and dumped heavy items into a bin … on my feet … in a hot dusty warehouse. It was not pretty.
I get home with just enough time to shower and clean myself up before my BFF comes to pick me up. I tell her of my day and the fact that I have to be back at work for 7:30am the next day.
We stay out until after 2am. 😲
I get up at 6:30am and curse my bad decisions. I did not have to stay at work until 9. I was supposed to leave earlier so I could nap before the club. But I was already there and there was so much to do.
We guesstimate that there was at least 2500 people who showed up for the sale. I managed to finish out my shift without issue. In fact I even ran a few errands before going home. But once I stopped moving, it was game over. Although I only slept for 2 hours around 7pm, it sort of messed up my sleep and I had a hard time falling asleep Saturday night.
On Sunday guess who went to bed not feeling very well? This girl!! Yup I have been fighting a cold all week and I am not sure I am winning. 😦
Basic take away, sleep is important my friends, very important.

Oh, yeah! I do that to myself too! But I usually accept the punishment and decide it was worth it 🙂
I have to confess the club just wasn’t worth it. I’m glad my BFF got out and had a good time but I could have happily missed it.
Could not agree more! I am sorely lacking in the sleep department and it’s definitely taking a toll on me… I hope sleep comes my way soon. *sigh* Pop some extra Vit C and catch up on your sleep, hopefully the cold doesn’t hit you full force!
I drank a lot of lemon with honey and oil of oregano. I think it helps keep it at bay. I feel a lot better.
You have a ton to do. I wish you luck.
