Exhausted

I have been so tired lately that tonight, during my hair appointment, I was actually drifting off a little as he was putting dye on my hair. There's something very comforting about having my hair done, even when it's bleach and dye. And I've always loved having my hair done, which is a bonus. Tonight though was just an extension of the sheer exhaustion I've been dealing with this week. After work every night this week I've napped, I've cried, I've just zoned out to ASMR videos after dinner before having to log back into work to deal with left over stuff I didn't get done during the day. I'm kind of a mess.

I'm so looking forward to having a weekend. Tomorrow night I get to meet an aunt of mine I didn't even know existed until a few months ago. My grandfather ran off with my dad and his older brother when she was still a baby, so they barely know each other at all. I guess she found my dad a few months back and has been talking to him some trying to get to know him and my grandpa a little. Tomorrow, she's flying in to town with her husband and is going to spend the weekend, so I get to meet her at dinner. (My grandfather was not a good man, this particular aunt isn't even the only girl baby he left in the dust with her mother. She's just the only one that's a full sibling to my dad and his (now-deceased) older brother.

Saturday my mom is coming in to town and we're taking the grandsons out to hang out with them for a few hours before they spend the night at our house. We just had the boys last Saturday night, but we only had them the one night so I'm looking forward to having them again and getting to do something more than stay cooped up inside with them. 

I got the notes back from the copy editor on my chapter yesterday. I've glanced over her preliminary notes and they seem (mostly) positive! I'm hoping Sunday after the boys have gone back home, I'll be able to spend some time with the official notes and see what they say. My hopes are high, though if it's good then that sort of suggest I have to make it work to finish the rest of my novel and um... I'm not really in the right head space for that at the moment -- see above exhaustion levels. But we'll see.
