Exhaustion

I have now worked for 13 straight days, and more than 10 hours/day for several of them. I'm tired. The Wichita Garden Show went well, although apparently it was much more sparse and scaled back than it has been in past years. I have no frame of reference, so I try to stay out of the speculation ring. This past week was busy with meetings and playing catch up, but I didn't really feel as though I accomplished much because the last two days were spent in Manhattan at Hort Agent meetings, so the pile I cleared off my desk at the beginning of last week is right back where it was a week ago. This morning we had a Master Gardener work day in the demonstration garden. We had about 6" of old, semi-composted wood chip mulch to dig out and haul away from around all the raised beds. As I said, I'm tired. And I know I'm going to be really sore tomorrow. This coming week will be busy, but hopefully much more routine. I'm thinking about taking Friday off, just to rest and catch up some.

I have a couple of different blog posts rattling around in my head; we'll see when I get them written and posted.
