I just need a little rest

Nobody should be as busy as I am right now. I definitely should not be as busy as I am right now. I am reasonably sure that the pace of the last few weeks is not what my doctors had in mind for me.

I can't catch my breath; then again, there's no time to even give it a real try.

In addition to the mountains of things that need to get done, my entire body is screaming in pain. There is no time for that.

Here's what I need right now: A magenta ink catridge for a Canon Pixma iP4500 printer, time to hem three six-foot lengths of fabric along the selvages and ends, and eight hours of quality sleep.

All are impossible. I'm not the super-May I used to be.

Such a disappointment.
