Hey…
I hope all of you are doing well…
All that comfort in the life finding prompt yesterday,
where I talked a lot of things that I do on good days,
but,
none of them had a mention of bad days that are there too,
so here it goes…
There are a few days when I return home late from work,
around 10 at night from work,
and I am tired and hungry,
Confused from all the piled-up responsibilities,
and deadlines that were supposed to be met but weren’t…
All of the work comes crashing,
and then it’s on me to complete it,
or get it completed asap,
even though the timelines as usual were impossible to achieve,
making it a race against time as usual,
making it possible someday,
but other days its miserable…
When I return home around 10 at night,
the usual routine takes a hit,
the tiredness takes over,
and Lethargy follows,
the schedule which is used to take half an hour at most,
takes around an hour,
hour and a half on worse days…
The night shower is spent in contemplating what if’s,
and how would the deadlines be met the next day,
and before I can look up at the clock it turned 11 PM,
so,
I hurry and get out of the bath and plate my dinner,
and have it while watching some videos or something informative,
and before I could peel myself away from the screen,
it was 11:45 at night..
After which I tidy my room a bit,
which pushes the time well after 12 Am,
and when I look at the clock,
it stuck 00:15 hours,
hurriedly I get in my bed,
and guess what,
I CAN’T SLEEP ANYMORE.
spending another 15 to 30 minutes changing sides,
trying to fall asleep…
All of this continues on until 1 in the morning,
on bad days until 2 in the morning,
which makes it impossible to wake up at 6 or 7 usually in the morning,
So,
I wake up at 8 or 8:30 in the morning,
making,
it that sort of a day,
a messed-up start,
repercussions of which follow throughout the day…
Shouldn’t this day be Friday already…?
Cheers 🥂?
Love Waakiye 🤍
