A much better night means a much better day...
and I had a much better night last night, even if I had to kick Tika off the bed several times before she'd stay off. Some weather actually came through with thunder and lightning and, later on, some rain, too. So when I got up, my feet didn't burn like they have for the past two days or so. What a relief!
Called Dragonlady to see if she wanted to be corrupted today, but it was a no-go. It was so funny though; she said that she could tell from my voice mail message that I hadn't had my coffee yet and that when she called back later she knew I'd had some. Then she went on to say that when her oldest girl was drooping around the house before she had her coffee, the family said she was acting like I do! I couldn't believe it; I didn't know that my morning application of caffeine (or lack of it) was so noticible! Does this indicate an addiction like my husband's addiction to Dr. Pepper and Mt. Dew? I certainly hope not! I thought I was drinking coffee for the taste of it.... In any case, we're going out for breakfast tomorrow morning.
Tonight starts Awana Clubs, and for the first time in 22 years, I won't be involved. It's a relief, but I know I will miss it, too. Son #1 doesn't want to do it this year, but for the kids (in this case, the boys) it's not optional. The question will be: can we get ready in time and how will I feel later in the day. The usual pattern of afternoon thunderstorms has been wreaking such havoc with my neuropathy that I never know how I'll feel in the afternoons. At least today is hubby's non-scheduled day and he'll be off at 4. We can get an early dinner and hopefully be ready to go for 6:30.
Got a little more done on Turnabout. Chapter 10 is taking forever, it seems, but it will be good when it's done.
