I do have problems with sleep sometimes. When everyone else in the house is asleep, SI is a nice, quiet thing to do. I am probably addicted by now. I tell myself, "I'll only check my messages and respond." Then, once I log on, I start reading the threads I have bookmarked, and responding to ones that interest me. I know it's bad when I start combing the New list and the Hot list, looking for topics I don't have bookmarked. (Like, almost every day).

No wonder my house is a mess, and my rear end is spreading.

But, it's so much fun! Actually, I got addicted when I was in a lot of pain, except for the wrists it was painfree, I have an ergonomic workstation and an ergonomic leather chair. Now that I am basically painfree again, I should stop and get to work.

I keep telling myself I should get a maid in to do the heavy stuff, maybe a guy to do the yardwork, but I just can't bring myself to do it. The physical limitations from the arthritis are duking it out with the guilt even as we speak. I still haven't raked the yard, but now that the boys are bigger, I suspect I know where to turn for to help. The yelps, debating, whining, and prolonged bathroom breaks usually wear me out worse than raking.

Time to make breakfast for the crew. See ya.
