Sounds like fun times.

Chocolate truffles used to be my Mom's favorites.

Happy upcoming anniversary to you and Mrs. Claus.
Thank you...
And since we are men and the woman are MIA atm....we can have men's coffee.

I don't do caffeine.

Now, if that was decaf espresso, then I'd be all over it.

I like the Veteran owned and operated part though.

I worked with our nation's Veterans for 16 years at 40 different VA Hospitals when I had my own business.

Well, it's about 4 or 5 days in a row now when I've only gotten about 3 or 4 hours of sleep...

:cry:

I think that they do have a decaf variant as well...

Warning... the coffee is strong.

Been there and done that...
I decided I needed to change my habits when colors started fading and my concentration and cognitive skills started fading as well.
And after a week of regular sleep it all came back.
It took me a year to get where I noticed things were deteriorating. But some high potency B Complex vitamins and curbing some vices fixed the situation for me. Your Mileage May Vary.
A couple of years ago I had my DNA analysis done. It confirmed what I already knew. Genetics...pfff.
My mom swears by melatonin or Sam-E or whatever new hypochondriac thing she has read about.

But ancestry dot com will usually have a sale...then you just get the raw data dna download and send it electronically to a firm that uses pub-med research on DNA snips and they can usually tell you all kinds of stuff that you have a genetic predisposition for...mine told me that I need extra B vitamins to help with my lack of ability to metabolize them...(another $15)
It also told me the best ways to diet and exercise and a bunch of other things that were specific to my genes.

Kinda cool...but I knew a lot already from experience. I'm just me. I know me....lived with myself my whole life.

But maybe you could get some insights into why you don't sleep normally.

I know that I'm REALLY tired when I start slurring my speech. Not at that stage now, but I have been in the past.

In regard to knowing one's self, I'm firmly convinced that my sleeping problems aren't the least bit physical.

In a very real sense, I'm my own worst enemy, but, then again, "enemy" is too harsh of a word.

I simply try to do too much, especially in relation to trying to help others, and that simply doesn't afford me much time to sleep.

Speaking of sleep, I had the weirdest dream last night.

I was walking with someone (God only knows who) in this grassy area, and then I heard a bunch of people start yelling at me (I thought I was in the BDF for a moment...lol). Turns out that I was walking on a golf course, right near a putting green, and Tiger Woods was attempting to make a putt.

Next thing I knew, Tiger stepped off the green, dropped a golf ball on the grass only a few feet in front of me, and pulled out an iron with which he was going to hit the ball right in my direction. He then smiled, and...






wait for it....







Started throwing a basketball back and forth with me.

What the...?

Anyhow, I never claimed to be normal...whether while I'm awake or asleep...lol.

Hey, there's my little friend.

Where've you been hiding?

To me, "normal" is just a setting on a washing machine...lol.

As far as the BDF is concerned, what can I say?

I'm a glutton for punishment...

Mommy had half a day "off" (if you wanna call it that) yesterday :)
Got to go away BY MY SELF AND go shopping where/for what I wanted (vs. shopping alone for family needs), then came home (LATEISH) and they actually left me alone (for the most part) and was able to get some stuff caught up on around here......
:unsure: Gee, this staying of the computer sure frees up a lot of time :LOL:
might have to do it again :eek:
