Low Ebb

Not feeling wonderful this evening.  The knee hurts again, almost as badly as it did in late May when I started all of this exercise madness.  It has been hurting since I ran the 5K on Sunday, and today it was probably a bit worse, not better.  I've been taking it easy since the race, walking, biking or swimming (no running).  But the knee hurts every time I take a step, almost.

I still have 30 stories to edit, and still feel as if my writing is horrible.  

I've been spending a lot of time at my son's school...tomorrow I have two more 45-minute volunteer duties to fulfill.  Really cuts into the writing time.  

Very tired...didn't sleep well last night, which contributes to my overall decrepit and demoralized state.  

Tomorrow morning I will be in my son's class reading a book to the kids, then we'll discuss it by acting out little skits and asking the kids how they should be interpreted.  Doing it with three other parent volunteers, all of whom have been great to work with.  It should be fun; but I am so dispirited that I can't work up much enthusiasm about it...better just go to bed.
