Morning Cuppa

I am sitting here this morning drinking my morning cup of tea, except that this is my first caffeinated tea in about 5 1/2 years! Too many late nights and far too early mornings have taken their toll. My mind goes into overdrive whenever I get into bed and I lie awake for easily a couple of hours thinking, praying, rabbit-trailing.....then right around 5am my baby wakes up crying to be fed and by 6am my big girl has come in for her morning cuddles and never goes back to sleep. I am not a morning person and I am living my worst nightmare!!!!

On top of it all, last night James worked from 5pm until midnight or 1am and came in at 2:30am, so my sleep was further disturbed and this morning I decided I needed something, anything, to help me to get through the next few hours.

So I pulled down my box of PG Tips, brought over from England (we always request chocolate, Marmite, and before I stopped drinking it, PG Tips) and had my first cup in a very long while. Now we'll see if my day starts out any better.
