Man, I am Just Dog Tired These Days...
 

What are you folks doing to combat fatigue?

Sleeping?

i am pretty much still working.

but i agree, something is beating me down.

i fell asleep at 7:30 pm on monday night. woke up at 6:00am. slept straight through. crazy. i woke up, drank a cup of coffee, and BING! i have never been so awake.

I was feeling the same way too until I got a dog and now walk him daily. A bit of regular exercise, even a walk, is a good thing. Cutting back on alcohol also helps, but you didn’t hear it from me.

Dogs are mans best friends, cats are good in butter and garlic.

Don, how old are you? Have you had any blood work and wellness physical in the last 6 months? Possibly something more going on like a deficiency ………….

mmm, butter and garlic.

;)

I think part of it is just getting older and losing some of your stamina.

I will be 66 next month and am feeling it myself, as much as I hate to admit it.

I'm still doing physical work pretty much every day and I try to keep the pedal to the metal as much as possible.

It wears on you after a while.

That's where the sleeping part really comes in handy.....lol.....

Hey, I'll be 78 in a couple of months. Talk about fatigue …….

I've quit chasing that dang tennis ball...

mutt dog tired?


seriously, it may be time for a physical & some blood tests

Exercise. Strangely, when I'm tired but then get on the elliptical trainer for 48 minutes, I am energized afterwards.

Me too. But I really enjoy long walks and tr....SQUIRREL!...treats.

My SIL had what everyone thought was narcolepsy, and could fall asleep anywhere/anytime, and usually would. It turned out his MD never checked his thyroid. He is now on a low dose, and has no more problems.

Trust me...I understand. The youngsters here haven't a clue.

Me too so I thought I might be coming down with something...apparently it's just old age.

Meh, I’ll just let sleeping dogs lie.

Turning 74 in August, slowing down a bit. This 951 Turbo is beating me up. Had to pull transaxle last week, took about 6 Bayer back&body and felt reasonably well after that adventure. Putting in another transaxle next week. Not looking forward to doing that. On my back in a creeper. Ugh, getting too old for this crap. Wife just shakes her head...

^^^^^ I can relate. I spent all day yesterday maneuvering a DR brush cutter around a big part of my place to get the grasses down enough to weed whack them. Now today I get of do the weed whacking. A couple of acetaminophens helped out last night though.

Ive been feeling tired the last two weeks or so. Almost like I have a touch of the flu but temp is 98.6F.

Eyes are a little puffy and grass is now being cut around here and plants are coming alive. I'm thinking a touch of allergies.
