So Long, Old Friend


I don't know if I've brought up my recurring migraines here. I had my first one in over a year a few weeks ago, then 3 or 4 in the next few weeks. When one rolled over me within 15 minutes of starting in my Sonic Route 44 Diet Coke, I suspected I may be onto something. Someone has suggested that it's the aspartame, and I'm not discounting that notion, but right now I think it's the caffeine that is giving me trouble. So far, decaf. Diet Coke isn't bothering me, so I'm suspecting the caffeine as opposed to the aspartame. So, I'm making it, but Sonic has yet to realize the glories of offering decaf. Diet Coke. Jason's Deli and our new Chick-Fil-A serve decaf, though! The only problem is that caffeine is what gets me through the afternoon without falling asleep. I'm about to drop right now!

Life continues to roll over us, and work has cranked up to busy just in time for the kids' school to ask what all I can help with in the way of field trips, end-of-year parties, and other activities. So, I must go to get us ready for pre-church baseball game, the night before the 2nd grade egg hunt. No wonder I'm so tired -- that sentence wiped me out!
