You're gonna have bad days

And really, I don't think they should be called "bad days" as they should be called "tired days." Yesterday, I woke up feeling that it was going to be a rough day. My energy level was really low, I was in a horrible mood, and I didn't want to do anything.
After visiting my mom in mid-afternoon and eating dinner (we eat early), I felt sleep come over me like a ton of bricks. I went to sleep in her recliner and slept for 3 hours straight. I thought that this would affect my sleep later by keeping me up, but it didn't. Still went to sleep early.
I don't know if I'm on the verge of having a flare up, but I just know that I've got to take it easy for the next couple of weeks if I want to avoid one. Sleeping a lot to most people is a sign of depression. For me, it's to avoid a lupus flare up.
