Sleep?? Maybe next year...

I used to sleep...

Why did I lose that ability to slumber?

I read more books. Just finished The Last Lecture. Worth not sleeping for!

I knit more...Too bad it has been close to 80 degrees this week,

no one needs a scarf or a hat.

Was that one of the kids coughing? Great, a thunder storm..."All in the bed and the little one said"..."Scootch over mama!!" Someone needs a sip of ice water...Ice water?

Who needs ice water at 3:22am?? One of mine...

I set art and create some of my favorite custom pieces in the wee hours. The silence does my creative side wonders.

I burst into tears watching posts that friends link onto Facebook. Sleep deprivation and awesome YouTube videos do that to me.

Thoughts about my clients moves to the front of my brain when the sun goes down. Finding the home. Advising about an offer. Marketing a home as hard as that home deserves. Visualizing closing day at the table with my buyers or sellers. Will the appraisal hit the point it needs to? Would a new appliance pop the kitchen even more? I think about it all and more.

Been up for hours...time to listen for foot steps to begin our next adventures. What will today bring? Oh, a birthday party, soccer practice, another birthday party, an open house, a community open house, some blogging, tweeting, yelping, yammering, hugging, kissing, laughing, crying, fighting, eating, and probably NO SLEEPING!!!!
