I'm so tired I can't think. The last few nights...ugh. Last night was awful - I couldn't fall asleep, and by the time I did J was waking up every 20 minutes or so.
We're having company tonight, so D is off shopping with J, who isn't having a nap today as I can't spend the entire meal running up and down the stairs. I'm so tired that I've had to way simplify the menu while keeping things nice. It's D's former head of department and her husband (the foodies) and another co-worker who was divorced in the last year or so. I haven't seen her since and only found out about the divorce just before we left for Israel. The biggest challenge has been to produce a meal that I can eat but that won't look typically vegan. D has vetoed curries, so we're going for gazpacho with homemade bread, couscous with zucchini and halloumi (they know I don't eat cheese), salad and marinated chick peas. Dessert will be (vegan) apricot tart with optional yogurt. Should be ok.
i'm so tired, though, and there's been a lot to talk about this afternoon. This kind of talking is rarely done well when one (or both) of us is sleep deprived. I just feel really rough today - dizzy, in fact. I really need to catch up on sleep before it gets much worse.
