Exhaustion...

I'm completely drained. Even 10 straight hours of sleep didn't help last night, and I hope I'm not getting sick.

Yeah, that would top off the last two weeks. Last week, it was excessive pain. This week, if I've caught something from anyone, I'll be a bit peeved.

Anyhow, I was able to do a lot of content for an MLM client. I'll most likely finish it in the morning tomorrow, because it's not too far from being done.

...what's worse is that I have to work at the bookstore tonight. -.- This should be interesting.

Wiped...

I can't tell you half of what happened in the afternoon today.

Oddly, I started completely blanking out. And when I was conscious, I was drained.

In the morning, while I felt fine, I was able to get some extra content for a wine and gifts site in California. After I started bottoming out, I did manage to squeeze out extra content for an insurance company in Cincinnati.

I don't know what happened. I haven't been eating anything terribly unusual...

Hmm...

Lost and Confused

Well...second try at attempting to brainstorm keywords for a client. So far, not too bad. I think...

Anyhow, today saw me doing content for a TV product sales site and a roofing company in Bellevue. Not bad.

Man, my hand is starting to hurt, though. Maybe I'll soak it when I get home.

Or not...

Monstrous Day

Wow! What a Monday! Aside from my ankle/instep feeling much better, I managed to finish a joint effort work for one MLM client, added some content for a roofing company in New London County, Connecticut and additional content for another MLM client.

Not that there was much work involved for the latter two (except thinking up keywords for the second MLM client), but still...Sam was a productive little monkey today. XD

Relief...

I CAN WALK SEMI-NORMALLY AGAIN!!!

Ahem...anyhow, I was able to finish content for two clients. One's for a cash-gifting system and the other one's a realtor in Toronto. And I get the weekend to recover from the damage my ankle and instep have been through.

Thank goodness...I don't know how much more Motrin I could stomach.

The Revenge of Pain

Just when I thought the pain was subsiding, it transitioned from my ankle to my instep, then back to my ankle again over the past week. Ugh...

Despite my lack of concentration (again, due to the pain and a lack of sleep because of it), I managed to finish content for both a realtor in Lake Chelan and an MLM client. I started content for another client, but the pain started again and I'm trying to hold out for at least another 20 minutes from the time of this post to take more Motrin.

Sometimes, I wonder if I'm overdoing it to myself. 13 days of work one time, one day off followed by two shifts in one day after that, then actually coming to work and taking pain pills instead of resting this week.

Curse my workaholic tendencies...they're going to be the death of me. Not literally.

Pain, the Epilogue(?)

After a near-restless night of not being able to find a comfortable position to sleep in because of the instep/ankle problem, I managed to make it to work with the help of a compression wrap, comfortable shoes (seeing as my foot was too swollen in areas to fit in my normal work shoes) and lots of Motrin. This same combination also got me through content for both a cruises and tours company and a real estate company in Spokane, WA.

Barely. I was nearly about to throw in the towel halfway through the shift, since the pain was both aggravating and disorienting. I felt dazed a few times during the shift, but I managed.

Whew...to be home again...
