exaustion?

I can barely hold my head up and I seem to be getting pissy at everyone.

My horses (and my mom and stepdad's two horses) escaped last night around 2 am. My brother woke up and saw they were out.

An hour later and we had found them on a dead end street where a sheriff had chased them in. I guess someone had called 9-1-1 about three loose horses.

Well it lead to me, my brother, and stepdad walking the three horses back 2 1/2 miles home in the middle of a snow storm.

Needless to say, we are all exausted.

Here's the issue. My brother now thinks that because he noticed the horses were gone he gets to do whatever he wants and say whatever he wants.

Its abnoxious. I thanked him a LOT last night for everything and it went to his head.

He called me a dyke because I was watching tv and wouldn't give him the remote.

Anywho back to the exaustion. I have to go take care of a friend's horse as well as mine and I have school tomorrow.

I am way past the point where coffee is going to help and I don't have any money to get an energy drink.

So cc, how do you handle exaustion and is there any natural way to get a pick me up?

If you don't like it, move out. I think that has been posted many times on your threads.

Anyway, take a nap. That always picks me up.

Take a nap. And kick your brother in the nuts. Both will help.

Honestly, I just try to sleep xD Or drink energy drinks/coffee. Glad the horses are okay though.

Honestly, I think taking my advice in my post would work wonders.

/bitch trip

Ya know, I'm thinking you're right.

that was kinda bitchy haha. plus OP might be too young to move out so that doesn't work out. I like my and Entertain's advice xDD

Instead of going online, take a nap. XD Just make sure you're either sleeping for under 3 hours or more than 5, studies have shown that sleeping a weird amount of time can mess you up even worse. also, tea helps, esp. green tea if you have it. it's a natural caffiene source.

If you've got any fruit such as apples on hand, eat one. Apples are a great source of energy. :J Also, don't let your brother speak that way to you. e_e

You are correct.

Well sort of.... I'm 18 so I can move out if I wanted to.

I may just go crash at my dad's house for awhile to get away from my brother.

ah ok. yeah, that would probably be a good idea. but yeah, kick your brother on your way out xD

I will hit him with my car on my way out.

Usually I just stubborn my way through exhaustion. I'm an insomniac so not getting enough sleep is the norm for me. I usually just keep going until my body goes "Find someplace comfortable because I'm going to sleep no matter where you are." Usually it doesn't progress that far, but it does sometimes. Most recent one was last Wednesday I was sitting in thermodynamics doing the whole head-fall-bob and having to physically hold my eyes open to keep them from closing thing. Skipped my next class to take a nap in my car before lab because exhaustion + heavy machinery = bad idea. xD

Some short term things to wake up are washing your face with cold water or doing jumping jacks.

[edit] Also your brother is a douche. Kick him in the nuts.
