This morning, my "smart watch" told me that I only slept 4 hours. So I knew that I'd be fighting to stay awake all day - which I did. But I didn't know that I'd be on the phone all evening.

Going to work as Marian adds about 30 minutes to my daily routine. As Marian, I need to shave all over to remove all traces of masculine hair, and then do my makeup. Mario doesn't need to do this. So I lose a half hour of sleep every day I go to work. And when I have only 4 hours of sleep, I become a zombie for much of the day. In order to avoid big screw-ups, I double check much of the work I do while doing it, and after it's done. So far, this has worked out for me, but I feel wasted at the end of the day.
I went shopping after leaving work, and stopped into both Target and Kohl's before going home. With a quick stop at Shoprite to pick up lunch and dinner for the next two days, I received a call from Vicki on my (now) short drive home. After unloading my bags, I got a call from TCL. Then, just as I was falling asleep, TCL wanted to chat again. And finally, it was time for my nightly chat with MWL. Not much done at all - even though I had 17 things on my to-do list.
Sooner or later, I must take care of ALL the things on this evolving list. But first, it's time for me to go to bed....
