Only human

[nisaa]

I accepted today that I'm really only human and not Superwoman. I gave up one of my shifts at the school clinic today because I was so tired by the end of the day (and still had a 3 hour class to go to) that I was in tears. On paper, it looked good. I have a class from 9-1, work from 1-5 and class from 6-9. I tried it for 3 weeks and I was just too exhausted. I need time to rest between my classes and study too.

My boss was very understanding and I put in a good word for one of my classmates who is a volunteer at the clinic. Then I took a nap before class and life was better.

Thanks! I'm glad I'm taking care of myself too.

speaking of taking care of health and well being, would you mind picking up more herbs for me this week at the clinic? I'll give you the $9 for the bottle when i get down on Sat. i think i'd like to bring some with me to Uzbekistan, since I have really noticed a difference this week.

THANKS!
