Rambling From A Slightly Caffeinated Brain

I am slightly caffeinated, which is scary, since I am a few hours behind my ritual caffeine consumption. I have not had the greatest of weeks and thankfully was able to sleep in!

• For those of you keeping score, no painting has taken place in my home for approximately 16 days. I am really hoping it is finished before Thanksgiving. I would like to be able to put my furniture back.
• Sheldon, our Bearded Dragon, may be full grown now and he will only eat Kale and worms. He loves his sandbox and has created hills and valleys of red sand and chooses where to snooze depending on the day. He appears to be quite content with his creations and the cat still could care less about him being in the house. She benefits from his heat lamp.
• I recall posting that I was going to hear my son sing, yet I do not think I followed up with that. The musical group he is in held a Cabaret night as a fundraiser. I had never heard him sing before this year, since before he was always in a choir. This year he is singing in a group which usually sings a cappella, duets, and solos. So, for the first time, I was able to clearly hear my son’s bass voice. There were tears that night.
• I only ordered 10 pounds of coffee beans this go round (usually I order 20 pounds) so I must not forget to order earlier than usual. It is the best fair trade, organic coffee I have had, yet shipping it takes forever.
• Does anyone else have a life which resemble a to-do list?
• While mentioning to-do lists, our insurance changed and so I get to talk with the nurse and try to explain why my scripts need to be changed, and I am not quite certain I understand it. A lot more caffeine is needed before I can make that phone call. Why do insurance companies mess with things that were working fine?
• One of my twins has been extremely involved with theatre and is hoping to be on the run crew, so please think good thoughts. He has been putting in a lot of hours and I hope he makes it.
• My other twin son is fine and involved in Animal Outreach and German Club since finishing up the cross country season and awaiting the beginning of track season. My Husband is also well.

Time to make more coffee, breakfast, domestic chores, and then I can escape into my book. I am currently reading Children of the Dust by Ali Eteraz and a review should be up sometime this week.
