But anything I say that is vague and iffy sounds like I am malingering.
What about coming out of the closet only as far as getting a doctor's note? As far as i know, diagnoses / medical reasons need not be disclosed. Can one of the doctors simply certify that you are not fit to do the weekend hours? Then the "rationale" remains between you and that doctor.

I don't feel good. The sunshine this afternoon made me tired and
I did not get anything done today.
Do you think it is the heat... i know a gal who has blood pressure dips sometimes when it gets hot, or if she moves into an area that is warm. have you ever taken your bp when you get tired from sun like that?

I wish I had done something with my life.
You have done something - you do much for many, you mean a great deal to many people. But I too wish i had "done more" if that's what you mean. It really hurts to live with unfulfilled potential. Regardless if it was just where the chips fell, or due to bad choices. Perhaps we need to accept certain limitations? But you know, I don't feel right about redefining my potential - that would hurt too.

Can hubby make you something comforting to eat or drink? I hope you can get some good sleep later.
