Doing the one eye.....lol

Good morning folks!

I am running on 3 hours of sleep. YUCK!!! For those of you who don't know what it is to get such little sleep and still have to function...here are the side effects;

SLOWNESS in communicating, computing, rationalizing, recalling
Extreme dry eye and therefore the eyes are red
Pins and needles in my arms....poor blood circulation
It would seem that there is a layer of fog behind my eyes. What I mean by that is this; imagine yourself after hours of swimming in a pool without goggles. You have been looking under water A LOT and now...your vision has a bit of a blur to it. Or...another analogy would be when you first wake up and your eyes are full of 'sleep'...and you have to blink a bunch of times to clear it away. Well....in my case it is perpetual.
Body is very slow to react......this is bad for driving!
Attitude for the time being: "Who Gives A Shit"!!!!

I just had to take a deep breath to replenish the oxygen in my brain after writing that brief blurb. LMAO!!!

I have made an executive decision. I will not pull more than one 16 hour day. I simply can't handle it. Gotta switch a shift pronto.

I am sad! I won't lie! I might be a 31 year old grown woman....but F***.....I still suffer separation anxiety when I know my mom is leaving. She will be leaving this country in 5 hours and I am in a bit of a panic. I don't think that it's that idea of her absence that gets to me.....I think it's the idea that something bad could potentially happen and that I won't get her back! So so so so scary and sad. I think it lasts about a day...after her departure before it wears off. Means I have another 24 hours of freakiness to go through. On a positive note; the freakiness is fueling my body with a surge of adrenaline which is counter acting the slowness from my lack of sleep. I guess its not all bad!

Well folks....its Friday!!! Have a brilliant weekend!
