"The spirit is eager but the flesh is eager." Though I'm aware that getting time isn't the most important thing being a pioneer, it is still important. But I've been going out practically every day this week and I'm sooo tired. I just want to sleep, sleep and sleep. Could. It be my illnesses? Who knows. All I'm certain of is that I'm staying in today, though I sure need the 5 hours I had planned. Tomorrow's another day and maybe the 5 hours can be made up later one at a time. I'm pushing for 100 this month. How I so hate this imperfect, sick body!! I'm actually feeling guilty of my decision today though there's no valid reason to feel this way. Crazy!

listen to your body. if you need sleep , sleep. You dont want to get more burned out than you already are. Mental work is just as hard or even harder than physical work. Sounds like your feeling guilty for not doing more than you are physically able to and your body is telling you, no , rather begging you to stop and rest. Find a balance.

"Burned out"? I hadn't considered that, though you could be right, because this isn't the first time I've felt this way and ignored it.
Sooo I feel asleep, on the couch of all places. Last service year because I allowed my emotions to get the best of me so seriously fell behind on my time, I was doing a number of 10 hr. days coming in late to make up the deficit including the last day of August.
Well I think I learned my lesson.
Thanks.

I've cut back my hours the rest of this service year, on paper, to be more reasonable. This means that I'll have the 840 (barring urgent/emergency matters of course) by June, 2018. Of course I'll still be out during July, and August, but without being concerned too much with requirements. June is never too hot, at least nothing much for me to complain about.
Thanks again Vinnie.
