So, meh...can't complain. I do enjoy the flexibility and the variety that freelancing bring. I certainly don't miss the office politics either! And I can pace myself with both work and household things, so it works well for me too.

Staying home solved that and allowed me to manage my household at the same time at my own pace.Jodiebodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11377052537742885631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-679982583847135662.post-49103930394967968312015-09-22T17:10:50.434-07:002015-09-22T17:10:50.434-07:00Oh I DO remember those days.

One thing I did find that helped a little bit was to make sure I got out at lunchtime. My office was near one of Sydney's big parks, and on fine days, taking my lunch and sitting on a bench in the fresh air was certainly better than staying at my desk. I don't know if that's an option for you, but if it is, give it a go - it helped kick start my afternoon. The boys at our coffee cart got to know that if they saw me in the afternoon I was having a tough day though!<br />All the best to you.

I'm where you were..working full-time, consuming WAY too much caffeine that seems to keep me from passing out at my desk but not wake me up enough to fully function.

I used to get very stressed about it, and I'd beat up on myself. Just no point in doing that though - it's not useful. As I commented on Arthritic Chick's post on this topic, my first rheumatologist diagnosed me with a secondary chronic condition: Chronic Stubborn Pigheadedness... I forgot about that when I was writing this post... He told me at the time that, given the RA diagnosis, it was going to be useful. He was right - but I have to be mindful not to push it these days...in the early days, before the wheels feel off and the disease got severe, I could get away with pushing through much more than I can these days. <br />Thanks Nick - I do love writing, and the blogs give me an opportunity to write for myself without having to fit anyone else's brief.

My partner is a bit of a neat freak, and I know he finds it difficult sometimes to get home and find me still in a mess...but he's coming to understand that sometimes I just can't - and that's not a bad thing, really. We live in a home, after all, not a display house! It's not always going to look perfect...Kazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06883203750700550391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-679982583847135662.post-12894553587547864762015-09-22T12:48:27.683-07:002015-09-22T12:48:27.683-07:00I think the worst part of fatigue is I never seem ...I think the worst part of fatigue is I never seem to overcome it. I try, I really do. But well like my uncle, it tends to hang around, seemingly without rhyme or reason. I love your post today, Kaz.

Sometimes that itself adds to the exhaustion.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10770603118736888646noreply@blogger.com
