* I decided to post this one today because it's eerily similar to my last night. Some things never change. :)

October, 2013. 

I never slept last night.

Oh, I had every intention of sleeping. There's no way a sane woman forsakes sleep when she is the mother of two boys just this side of full-blown bonkers, or when her husband will be leaving town for the weekend, abandoning her to the children, the laundry, the dishes; the post-apocalyptic-looking house.
