keep on movin'

I haven't stopped since we moved a couple of weeks ago.

It seems that there's always something to do: whether it's organizing our new home or working or even simply getting to work. At least Morgaine is on top of doing the dishes. But my energy level is greatly diminished. Just getting out of bed takes so much effort that I need a nap after. And I'm a morning person, so you can only imagine how worn out I feel by the time the evening rolls around.

And of course in the evening I have to work. So as I work, my feet drag on the floor when I get up to help a customer find a movie or I mask a slight sigh with forced enthusiasm when asked for advice. I feel the constant need for an energy boost but the only things that help are the two things I don't want: caffeine and sugar. And so I jump on that blood-sugar roller-coaster and end up alternately dragging my butt and buzzing around the store talking a mile a minute to someone who only asked me a simple question.

I would love to avoid this constant up and down but fear that my dependence on outside stimuli will only increase when my wonderful, wonderful child arrives... which means that they will likely find me alternately incredibly entertaining and terribly boring.

Comments

Hey Craig, why not have a section in the store that has FAQ so you DON'T have to answer questions OR have a customer comment card to ask how you can make their video experience better and quicker (not that it isn't already I'm sure!) Just a suggestion. This could free up time for you to catch your breath between sugar rushes.
