That's what I read somewhere, once, while looking into insomnia...If all else fails, consider the nights a gift of time. That's all well and good on an occasional basis, but I think I've had my fair share of gifts and would really just like to get some sleep. Thankfully, tonight has been the worst in a long while. The last few weeks, I've been losing an hour or two at most but, tonight, I haven't slept more than that. Unfortunately, Tuesdays and Thursdays are our long days (Jeff has to cover his shop until 5 on those days - keep in mind, my days normally start at 0430 and you have to add about an hour and a half to the end for the commute), so I've been debating how many cups of Starbucks are going to get me through the day.

Not much is going on. Work is "same old, same old" and getting older. There is the possibility that I'll be getting a new job pretty soon, but I'm waiting on red tape and politics before I get to hear anything specific. Kadie's still doing very well in school. We have our first parent/teacher conference for her next Tuesday and expect to hear glowing reports. Jeff is still chugging away at his job. He's been getting a little more bogged down than he expected to with his new team lead responsibilities, but I'm sure he'll manage to even things out and find a happy medium.

Hope everyone is doing well. We're sending lots of prayers and positive thoughts over to Dave and Melody. Melody didn't say where her travel assignment was or for how long it would be, but we hope it goes well and wish Dave plenty of strength while she's away.
