Only 2 days more till 2008 comes. I’m suffering from quite a bad case of fatigue – very very tired even though I sleep early and wake early. I have no idea why this is happening. I’m very tired right now but Sunshine won’t let me take a nap.

Hi Jolene! What a busy year you’ve had!
You might want to go to the doctor and get a couple of blood tests. You might have chronic fatigue syndrome or deficient in iron or something. Don’t think it’ll go away by itself if you’ve been feeling so tired all year! Take care ok!

Oh, no no, my first lethargic-ness (no such word) was when I was pregnant and I didn’t know it. In between I was okay.
Now I think I’m just tired. Not enough rest. Took a nap today. Felt better!
