Rest your body. You'll be thankful later. Life is hectic and gets even more so as we add on those extra shifts at work, extra chores at home and responsibilities that different phases brings with it. But have limits, have principals and treat yourself kindly to the best of your abilities, take care of it.
Not because of hedonistic and selfish reasons (being a little selfish about your body is a good thing), or commercial, superficial things. But really to a better day. Rest your body, let it sleep. Sleep is a must. Take the rest and the day off when you need to. You aren't going to solve all of your problems and one more day isn't going to make everything impossible. By now it should have already gotten done and no longer matters so much. Or there is still time for it. Sit down, open a bottle of wine, watch a movie and enjoy the day, the evening, the night. Take the time off for your thoughts and emotions to be still, sink low and then be digested. Let them sift up and rethink things. See if they're as appealing or more appealing still. The way that finishes doesn't come back, so you might as well enjoy it while you have the chance. Tomorrows are always there, but sometimes, today is what's important.
When it shuts down, then well, you can say goodbye to all the things you wanted to do, but never even got a chance to think about it twice. That would be more tragic.
