even though it wasn't anything really heavy.

I've also been feeling uncharacteristically sleepy the past few days.

That can occur when your physical biorhythm is at the bottom. If you have a smart phone, a good app to have is PRObiorhythm.

Trying to get my house ready to put on the market. I've done 4,000 things to get it ready and it's still a disaster! Ugh!

Then, my so-called best friend offered to help me with things I can't do and he's pretty much blown me off three weekends in a row. Feeling very low about that because 1) I am on a deadline and 2) I am always there for him when he needs me.

No joke, I feel your pain. I've been tired & rather depressed lately, too. Fighting it daily. Thinking it's all the turmoil & bad news & happenings, one on top of the other, that are part of the problem. Boston Bombing, TX explosion, ricin, etc. I need to lay off the news for a while to see if it helps. Feeling it just might.

and it has worked so far. And believe me I am in the middle of a tornado of activity and am almost sleepwalking through it all.

And I concentrate on just the fact that I am in the alive state to observe it all. No need to take action. Just observe and survive, that is all my only obligation.

Fatigue, muscle aches, phlegm in throat. I think that it is a clearing. I am clearing out stuff that no longer serves me.

Saturn's influence can bring a heavy feeling, and the Sun relates to our general vitality.

Feeling blah, as well, but I know I need to pay conscious attention (the Sun) to daily responsibility's and practical stuff.

The heavy feeling should ease off as the Sun transits away from the opposition to Saturn.

15. tired and sore from digging in the garden

I was tired, heavy feeling and sleepy until the opening came to repair my overgrown garden. The energy came exploding out. Now I'm tired and sore, but the end is in sight so I keep pushing myself. I have this fear if I stop to rest, the rains will come, the weeds regenerate, and all my work will be for naught.

But then I look at the forecast and instead see no rain in sight. Last week I saw 10 days of no rain. This week I see 10 days of no rain. Good for the moment, but not for the long run...

Still, I'm sure if I slow down the forecast will change. So today I will forgo digging and instead water and mulch my sugar snap peas and sorrel.

what keeps me going are my newly introduced b12 shots on a weekly basis. I was really depleted and foggy. Not so much, but every step forward leads to at least one and usually 2 back!

But the sun is shining today and I feel fine!

All day today, I have felt disconnected from my brain.
For example, at work, I'm documenting tasks for disaster recovery plans.
I totally eff'd up and interchanged info on 3 sets of plans, even though I was looking right at the notes.

At lunch, I'm looking right at what I want on the menu. My mouth opens and something totally different comes out.

What the hell??

Was just listening to tunes and had a sudden "I miss my big brother Mike" moment.
I haven't seen him in over 10 years (family is very dysfunctional and distant). My clairvoyant abilities are ... hit n' miss at best, but I do have them. So I hope he's ok.
