Getting back to what is an average day.

I go to work 9 hours a day. I have to rest when I get home for an hour or two because I'm mentally exhausted. This bugs me because I want to be doing something, but I just can't. I usually do fun stuff like cleaning and taking care of the pets' litter. Now, I'm spending time looking for and applying for jobs. I may watch a bit of tv or read or surf the net before I go to bed. I have to sleep at least 8-9 hours a night. I wish I had more time and more energy. I used to do so much more and had many goals and a packed schedule. Now I just try to make it through the week and maintain a full-time job. I absolutely hate the limitations of bp and don't want to accept them.
