Where’s Average Jane?

So there was this big event a couple of weeks ago. I took a bunch of pictures and had lots of stories to go with those pictures, and then somehow I just didn't write most of those stories down and illustrate them with the pictures. And then two weeks went by.

I would like to be doing this at all times, including right now.I can't even really tell you why I haven't managed to write my posts except that I've been so very tired. Even at the conference I spent long stretches of time lying on the bed in my room reading my book when I ran out of energy and needed time to recharge.

I don't know why I'm so exhausted all the time. My doctor kept chalking it up to the anemia…that I apparently no longer have. I'm still managing to get in a pretty good amount of exercise and keep my calendar relatively full, but I would eagerly take a nap at any given time these days. If they had a room at my office designated for napping I would use it every afternoon.

I don't even feel lazy for having neglected my blog because I'm just so tired. I'm going to go ahead and write one big BlogHer post tonight just to get it done and clear the way for other things (such as my trip to BlogPaws this coming week). But I'd really rather go lie down.

But enough of the whinefest. I'm sure this'll all get solved eventually, but for now I have to power through my work, get one more conference under my belt and then I'll have the time to pester my doctor for more useful answers. Perhaps after a nap.

    I can totally relate. I am saying a prayer for my friend, Average Jane.

    I had the same problem for the longest time. And though everybody is different, I would suggest a few things to check, if you haven’t already. My primary problem was a Vitamin D deficiency, as well as Folic Acid. Once the doctor prescribed mega doses of RX grade Vitamin D, plus Folic Acid, and Super Omega 3 fatty acids, I slowly started feeling better, breathing better, sleeping less, and don’t run out of breath just walking down stairs or to the end of the driveway.
    Judging by your posts and activity level, though, you have 10x more energy than I ever did. But it’s worth checking — it made a huge difference in my overall energy.
