Chocolate cupcakes = calcium

 

I am so tired.

This morning I poured my cup of coffee before the machine was done making it.

Which doesn’t sound that desperate, until I tell you that we don’t have the ol’ pause-and-serve feature, so I had to mop up the counter and coffee pot when I was done.

Worth it!

Also, I was tempted to lap it up right from the spigot it comes out of, hamster-style.  So, really, I applaud my restraint.

Sometimes I wonder about my tiredness.

Why am I so tired?

I have even contemplated getting my thyroid checked.

Then, I remember what I have been doing, and it all becomes clear.

So far today, I have:

Made bread

Cleaned the boys bathroom

Mopped the bathroom

Dusted

Danced with my duster to some kids music

Swept the kitchen floor

And it’s only 1:27.

Really, I don’t mean to be complaining.  It’s been a lovely day so far, but it is a wonder that I am still upright.

In fact, as soon as I finish this post, my cupcakes and I are laying down to regroup.

Because the afternoon shift is coming in fast.
