Decaf

Fifteen and 3/4 years ago, when I became pregnant with Eldest, I gave up caffeine. I still love a cup of coffee, but it's always decaf.

Last night at 3:54 a.m. I finally figured out that when I bought a new can of java after supper, I didn't look closely enough at the label. A few mugs of evening espresso will keep you up a loooooong time, especially if your body's not used to the buzz! But when the alarm rang at 5:45 a.m., I was able to prove that I truly can make muffins in my sleep!

The two big kids are off to school, Snuggler and Dancer have departed for their special trip with Mary's godmother, and Little Guy is asleep. Time for me to head back to bed, too.
