I'm pretty sure I know how you feel...
I mean, physically. If you like thousands other overworked and over-stressed men and women, you are most likely exhausted by the time you have your first coffee in the morning.
How I know? I was there too.
The story went like this:
Leaving the office around 5 in the afternoon and usually closer to 6, then sitting in that car like a veal, driving home. I was one of the lucky few... going against traffic - so I was actually driving - that was always a bonus, as I was relaxing.
That's what I called it. The reality was different, many, many times I would find myself sobbing behind the wheel! No, no one was mean to me at work, no one yelled at me, I wasn't hurt physically.
I was just so tired, exhausted really with no hope of the next day being better, and the tears were a form of release, I guess.
So most days, I would pull over to the side of the highway and pray that no one could actually see the despair in my eyes or the red cheeks and those huge tears dripping down my face. I would sit there for a moment, trying to compose myself, so I could go home to my family.
I would walk in the door smiling...
Than I would cook dinner, clean up a bit, try to read a book, answer e-mails, watch a movie, make few of my fabric flowers (that was supposed to relax me). Then I would get into bed and... just sit there for hours unable to sleep!
The morning would come and after finally falling asleep around 3 in the morning, I would wake up cranky and exhausted... again. I was spiraling deeper and deeper into the exhaustion and I didn't know how to save myself.
Than something happened that crushed me...

Las Vegas Magic
My first time in Las Vegas, and I'm like a little kid!
I had no idea it's THIS much fun! And no, I don't mean playing at the Casinos.
I'm mesmerized by the architectural details, walking around with the stunned look in my eyes. The colours, the grandeur, the intricate and meticulously kept details everywhere I look.
Even our older Mirage... with the majestic volcano and stately glass dome... yes, you can tell that it's aging, but oh, how graciously. Every moment of your stay here is pleasant, maybe not relaxing, as there is so much to hear and do... but definitely unforgettable.
And then you have the food... take Pantry at the Mirage, breakfast of the kings is served there! I never had an omelette this good! Spinach, mushrooms and feta... WOW - simple, but just WOW!
You may think: why would you go to Vegas and not play???
Oh, I played... lost some, won some... but it's not blowing my skirt up. It's ok, when I'm waiting for the rest of my friends to go out and we are "meeting in the lobby in 20".
If you are here, be sure to check out those amazing hotels, just for fun!
