*slumps with exhaustion*

I think I overdid it yesterday *she says weakly*

Friday and Saturday were really hot and the second day was when I had to make a dessert for a holiday lunch with friends on Sunday. So I was already feeling pretty tired but I made the Gingerbread Bundt Cake with Cinnamon Glaze, the Lemon Pie ice cream and the Swirly Chocolate Peppermint Bark. And I went to lunch yesterday and it was fun and I got to see my friends and chat and eat and play with Pip's rats (not at the same time) and it was good although I kept wanting to slide down in my chair and fall asleep.

Then I finally came home and there was the storm and the blackout and neighbour's visit and when I went to bed there were long, involved, exhausting dreams and when I finally surfaced today it was 5p.m. and I still wanted to roll over and go back to sleep.

Hot weather + activity + socialising = exhaustion. No shit, Sherlock. Really have to stop overestimating your own capabilities. *makes cranky face* I hate not feeling capable.

But I did enjoy seeing my friends. And everyone liked the cake and ice cream so that was good.
