Done In By Coffee Ice Cream

I don’t drink coffee much anymore (except maybe decaf once in a long while), but I LOVE coffee ice cream. My roommate had an ice cream party last night and one of the leftovers was coffee ice cream—Starbuck’s no less. Dove into a couple of cups that. And of course, now I’m up at 1:00 in the morning and can’t sleep, even with a double dose of Wallgreen’s sleeptime pills (not that they’re that good). Still I’d like to get some sleep but no go. It also doesn’t help that I was already hopped up on Coke and Pepsi. So I’m blogging to get me to sleep hopefully.

Plus Sophia whimpers a lot at night. I never know if it’s a bad dream or the heat or something else. Either way she lets out a cry, whooshes around in her bed and goes back to sleep. She does this every couple of seconds for a couple of minutes, only to repeat it an hour or so later. Drives me nuts because I never know to wake her up or not. So I’m stuck in limbo until I can get some sleep.

Tomorrow is church homecoming at Medford church and we’re doing a water communion. Sophia and I got our water from Spy Pond this afternoon. It’s practically in our backyard. I was hoping to do some from the sprinkler park we usually go to, but as I said in the last entry the sprinklers are turned off for the fall on Labor Day. And I didn’t think to grab some last week. So the pond will do in a pinch. We’ve been going to the playground there a lot so it’s perfect.
