In the Soup

This is a view from our front steps. Usually you can see half a dozen houses, a stop sign, and a few cars from here. But the past few days have been low visibility around here. In more ways than one.

I went to the eye doc Saturday. One eye, better visibility, one eye worse. Balance in all things I suppose. I asked about the twitch and he said three things, caffeine-unlikely, stress-pshaw, or lack of sleep. Now lack of sleep I can sink my teeth into. Only, I really don't lack sleep all that often. But I will use any excuse to get a few more zzz's if I must.

And we will be collectively going to bed earlier around here. Nate is in the office all day now-he was just in the afternoons. He's trying to get a pretty early start, which means less late nights. Which means no more late night chex mix and mindless TV. And, I will be back in charge of lunch, drat!

An eye twitch means more naps, you say? Count me in!

Are you okay, though? Was the doctor thorough?

We've been pulling some late nights lately as well. I'm having to put a stop to it, though. I get way too hungry at night and just want to eat everything. I'm much better off being an early riser!

Hope the eye thing goes away.

I probably told you this already, but I get an eye twitch periodically (although it doesn't usually last as long as yours has!), and I think mine is more than likely sleep-related too.
