Burned out

-- 5 Nov 08 --

This was written on 5 Nov but hv forgotten to post it...
stress + worries + guilty, etc... haiz...
all in 1!

========================================

So much has happened at work and at home lately.

Had took a week off work to clear the balance of my maternity leave last week to try to take a breather as I felt tt I've lost the energy to work.

Went for short break at Batam but ended up - not tt fun/ enjoyable.
Come bk on Monday feeling even more tired. Dun ask me why. Just felt not refreshed at all...
Maybe cos on Sun - learnt tt grandpa got hospitalized so not really in the heart to enjoy.

Tuesday - took care of Kady since her CC is closed.

Wed - ended up gg bk to work for 1/2 a day.
then went to hospital to see grandpa.
1st sight @ grandpa - in my heart I know his time is near... Crying or Very sad
had a really emotional talk with him... which left me emotionally drained.
(he's diagnose with acute leukemia)

Thurs - work fr home as need to get my mind off grandpa, prepare slides for our budget mtg. No mood - so whole afternoon also never do much. haiz

Fri - home with Vera, then went to CC for Kady's b'day celebration... (only piece of good news)

Sat - Vera started fussing thru' out the nite... so didn't sleep well.

Sun - Vera had fever, Kady had bouts of vomitting, I had diarrhea.
Evening - rush to hospital to see grandpa as he suddenly developed fever.

Mon - Tuesday, had intensive off-site budget meetings. Vera still had her fever, no sleep again at nite.

Wed - mad rush trying to clear off the work, new assignments, budget mtg wrap up, new staff orientation...

I'm sooooo tired!!!! really burned out...
got break maciam no break like that....

on my plate now - got soooo many outstanding items to complete!
Recruitment to do, projects to handle, new assignments, etc....

ARRRGGGHHHHH!!!!!! I need 2 more heads and 4 more pair of hands! Evil or Very Mad
