Right on the money

Your horoscope for August 24, 2008
You may be feeling a difficult internal conflict, Jennifer, based on the fact that you know there are things that you need to be doing and responsibilities that you need to be taking care of, but at the same time, you simply do not want to do them. You would much rather spend your day forgetting about your duties and just having a good time. Whatever you decide to do, commit to doing it, and do not let regret or guilt spoil the picture.

Wakey, Wakey

This morning at 5:30AM, Jason woke me up to tell me that Jules' pump had "no delivery". She was 22.5. He had to get ready for work so could I please get out of bed and take care of it? Rather then wake her up to change her site and endure the cries, I opted to give her a pen with 1.5 units instead. That done, I returned to the warmth of my cozy big bed where a lone house fly preceded to land on my face. Why do they do that? After finally falling asleep, I was awoken again. This time by Samuel to tell me that he was having a nose bleed. Lovely. Then back to bed with the same fly landing on my face. Ugh! They should make little guns with red laser sights just for this occasion. Then Jason comes in to give a hug and kiss and tell me he's leaving for work. Informs me that he has to pick up Gary and Kellie because Sherry's dog Jake is bleeding?? What is with this morning? Somehow I did manage to fall asleep again. Actually I was probably asleep before Jason's car was out of the driveway. Got back out of bed at 8:30AM. Changed Jules' sight. Gave the kids breakfast. Made some coffee which I notice is getting dangerous low. And now I am awake.

Caffeinated

I should be in bed right now. I should. It's 11:12pm on a Thursday night. Scratch that, it's 11:13pm. Tomorrow morning I have to get up and get the kids ready and off to school and then myself ready and off to work. I know that the morning me would really appreciate it if I went to bed right now. But the thing is, I'm not tired. Why is that? I'm not sure. It could be the hot chocolate I drank at 10:15pm. Wait. Does hot chocolate have caffeine in it like coffee? I mean I know it obviously has some caffeine in it, but is it enough to keep you awake? It would appear so. Note to self: no hot chocolate after 9pm.
