I can only remember a couple of times when I can say I have been truly exhausted.

One of those times was during the Christmas Season.  This usually causes me a great deal of stress and total exhaustion.  I was decorating at the last minute, which is normal for this master procrastinator.  My husband was having a social at our house with his meeting buddies.  In order for me to create what I thought was “Better Homes and Gardens Holiday Magazine,” I actually stayed up three nights in a row without going to bed or allowing myself to rest in any shape or form.  I would not recommend this, as strange things happen to you when you try to go without shuteye.  Since I also had to go to work during the day, I  decorated all night and continued on my necessary schedule.  I can say that I actually started seeing objects in my peripheral vision. To say I was exhausted was an understatement.  To start this holiday event, the club that came to my house had a speaker before we were to party.  I have never been so tired.  I had to use every ounce in my being to stay awake for his speech.  What he spoke about, I have no idea.    So, don’t try this at any time, as it is very dangerous to your health, taken from experience.
