Exhausted

It was an exhausting stressful weekend.  Every nerve in my body was strung tight and quivering.  Every ounce of patience was used up two fold.  

But Sir Steve's party went off with hardly a hitch.  The rain held off till we had finished dinner and we simply pulled out the awning and had cake and dessert on the deck.

I haven't really slept in a week.  I had hoped I would sleep last night -- but I didn't.  I am too tangled up .... so I came back to the city this morning with the laundry. I am hoping mundane work and total quiet will heal what ails me.
