River: Distracted?

[mdlbear]

I'm feeling pretty seriously out of it right now. I shouldn't snap at my daughter in total confusion when she asks me to take my laundry out of the drier. I shouldn't scrape my car on a concrete pillar getting out of a parking spot, the way I did last night. I shouldn't be so distracted that I pay $1500 to Alhambra instead of to Amex.

I should be socializing more at OSCon, the way I did the last three or four years. I should be getting more done at work. And at home. I shouldn't let bills and paperwork pile up, the way I have been.

I should make more music. I should pay more attention to the people closest to me. The people I love. I should take better care of myself.

I'm stressed, and distressed, and distracted. Probably depressed, but I can't really tell -- I'm not feeling much of anything right now.

I sleep with a CPAP; that's not the problem. The fact that Colleen wakes up several times/night to use the commode doesn't help; even when she doesn't need help, I usually wake up.

I can see that's a problem, especially if every time she moves you worry that she needs help and wake up thoroughly.

It still wouldn't hurt to talk to the doc and see if there's anything else going on. What you describe, sounds like serious exhaustion.

As always, good luck!!!
