I’m beat.
It is no surprise that the days I spend with my kids are the ones I find the most taxing. This really boils down to putting a lot of work into making sure the kids have stuff to do and are enjoying the summer. The result is me drained beyond reason by the end of the night and unable to get anything of value done. So the work piles up into the next day and that day winds up being terribly work heavy and draining. And so on.
I used to be able to escape into a video game to relieve the stress of these days but nowadays I’m too tired for even that. The work, of course, suffers as a result. This is why I’m looking forward to summer being over.
I’ll do my best to enjoy the end of it.
