I forgot to do a Wacky Word Wednesday post for yesterday, despite feeling that I was missing something! I decided that I will do it today instead, and have got the perfect word to sum up how I feel after the day I have had!
Knackered. Yes, washed out, worn out, tired out and generally pooped! It is overworked, overtired, and over-emotional! Exhausted and drained, shattered and sleepy, not to mention dozy and drowsy.
It has another meaning that can also apply to me. Broken and battered. on the blink, and, basically buggered! It is on its last legs, and more than a bit past it!
Wacky Wednesday on Thursday…love it. Great word. We don’t say it here but I’ve always loved it. Such a great sound to it 🙂

Love the word and your description. Feel for you. I felt “knocked around by life” also today. Shopping for Thanksgiving this week-end and for my daughter’s birthday same time. Long day. Wish you rest and peace.
