I've been tired and jetlagged for the last couple of weeks, and this morning I came to a realization. I can either sit around and wait until I'm no longer tired (which may happen very rarely, given my health issues), or I can just go ahead and get stuff done anyway. So this morning on the train I finished a story, one that I had critted last year at Milford, then by my local writing group. This morning, I finished telling the story, which oddly enough is now a Christmas story. And has an even sadder ending that it did before. Merry Christmas.

Yeah, I had that "waiting until I'm no longer tired" realization about 15 years ago. Sigh.

Go, you! on the writing, though.

There's too tired and then there's too, too tired.

You are so right. There's a point where one must simply get on with living.

I'm probably never going to wake up without an ache or a pain somewhere, but I know that unless I exercise regularly, they're only going to get worse. And if I want to do the things I want to do, I need that strength and flexibility. So I groan and heave and sigh, and get through it anyway.

Yup! We just gotta keep on truckin'.
