...approaching burnout.

I survived my art deadlines, albeit accepting some compromises I'm not crazy about in the process. I also survived Open Studios. Now, I am trying to recover... from the past month.

My apartment is in a state of disaster. I'm trying to bring it back to life this week... cleaning, doing laundry, sorting clutter, recycling, and goodwill-ing. Also in the mix, resting. I had a sinus infection week before last which, thankfully, quickly responded to antibiotics. This weekend, it tried to make a comeback. I'm still on the antibiotics and am flushing my body with water and vitamins. I think I need some sleep, so that's been put back on the priority list.

I'd like to get in some runs this week, especially since I'm registered for a 5k this Saturday. It should be a fun one, even if I don't get to run it. My mental state is getting jagged from the lack of running... and, of course, as luck runs it's raining today. Since I'm not training and it's very clear my immune system is struggling to keep up with me, we aren't pushing it today. The treadmill has potential though.

Even in my job, I feel as though I'm approaching a burnout. I'm trying to rest, relax, and recover to prevent it.... and, yet, life goes on.
