What is Chronic Fatigue?

You know how it feels when you are JUST coming down with the flu: muscle aches, fever, mental confusion, exhaustion, headache, stomach ache?  That is what I have all the time.

I need easy jobs at which I do not have too long of a TO DO list.  I volunteer for my neighborhood community relations group and have decided to help with the newsletter advertising, however, in the beginning I was only supposed to go and pick up checks for ads from local businesses.

It soon turned into me being the AD MANAGER!!  Now I need to:
prospect new clients;
stay in touch with current advertisers to see if they want to advertise again;
send out emails about advertising;
keep a spreadsheet of current advertisers, past advertisers and payments;
take phone calls and emails from interested businesses;
collect all ad material (usually the companies business card) via email or in person;
send out newletters with:
*thank you letters
*invoices.

It is the spreadsheet that is killing me.  My brain just does not operate that way anymore.  It is frustrating to say the least.

I am confused and flu-esque all the time.  And I haven't even begun to tell you about how Fibro affects me.
