I'm exhausted!

Something that Susan ate yesterday obviously did not sit well with her. Sparing you from all of the gruesome details,she finally made it back to bed around 2 a.m .I did not fall asleep until some time around 4, and it being Wednesday, I was up at 6 to get dressed and ready to go to shul.
I suggested that she stay in bed and grab an extra hour or so of sleep.I told her I would wake her when I got home. I also texted Becca to make sure she opened the shop today,something that Susan normally does. By 8:30,(opening time) we were on our way. 
No harm no foul.
We had some electrical issues last night at the shop ,so I stuck around until our landlord and neighbor got in so that we could sort them out.
By 10, I was on my way back to the office.
I am still chasing down the mis-deposited funds from 2 days ago, a situation I hope will be rectified today.
As I sit here typing away, I can barely keep my eyes open.
2 hours of shut eye is just not enough to keep me energized.
My natural fall back would be to comfort myself with food. When I don't get enough sleep, I have to replenish some how.Food,specifically comfort food has always been my go to substitute choice.
All of the items on my agenda today are things that will take a whole lot of effort. They all require my abilities to be creative,with tons of follow through.
Getting started on any of these feels like starting a car on a bitter cold Winter morning.
If you live in the Northeast,you know exactly what I mean. You turn the key and the battery in your vehicle makes that sound and all you can do is repeat over and over"c'mon baby....not today!, let's go!"
Luckily for me, I still have enough of a charge left to crank it over. I have not yet hit the point where when you turn the key all you get is click.
I just need to pick one item on my list and get it started. Once I get on a roll I am sure I can keep moving.
Oh,....BTW....Susan is much better today. I am sure by day's end she will be ready for a good night's rest. I armed her with a bottle of Pedialite and some crackers and jelly to snack on until she feels up to something more substantial.
As for myself? 
I'm going to go grab a cup of coffee and then get on with my day!
