I am struggling hard to find energy today. There's so much I want to do. So many projects I could be taking on right now, and all I want to do is cuddle up in my blankies and take a damn nap. I don't even need Netflix or anything. Hell, writing this blog right now is taking up too much energy even. I tried coffee too.

Chris got home from work around two last night, and we stayed up until about five. I was up and down most of the morning from 7am on. At 11 I surrendered and stayed up. You'd think for as tired as I am I could get some damn sleep, but that's the kicker. If I give in and go take a nap I really won't sleep tonight, but probably even without a nap when it comes time for sleep I won't be able to. Stupid brain. At least it's not as bad as what it was pre-Tysabri. I would be sleep deprived to near the point of insanity. Hallucination inducing sleep deprived. It's not fun.

Not Today Either!

I was out with my Pop the other day, and we were talking about the Powerball jackpot being so high. He said the first thing he'd do if he won was donate to St Jude's Children's Hospital. It kind of caught me off guard, and surprised me a bit. He talked passionately about all the good they do for sick children, while running on donations. My Pop doesn't really talk about causes, charities, or politics. It's usually fishing, cooking, or gardening. To hear him so passionate about a charity was surprising, but in a good way. His birthday is coming up at the end of the month, and I wasn't sure what to get for him. I think we might order him some address labels from St Jude's and make a small donation in his name.
