sleep deprived stupor

Got another cold, wet Wednesday behind us. This is turning into one of those marathon weeks that feels like it has gone on forever. No sleep again last night for me or Liv. We are both drugged up for tonight so perhaps we will catch a few winks tonight. Took Duncan to Cold Stone after dinner. He ordered a large mint ice cream in a sprinkled waffle bowl with white chocolate chips, gummy bears and Reese's. The kid knows how to live! I would have needed a little more chocolate if it was mine, but whatever.
This whole sleep deprivation thing has got to end. Lately it seems like if Olivia is sleeping soundly then I am either waiting for Mitch or Alisa to get home, or they are both home and still awake til the wee hours, and keeping me awake. And if they are both home and in bed, then Olivia is not sleeping for one reason or another. Mitch has not had anywhere to be in the mornings since he finished up his school work in February. He has taken to staying up late, really really late, and sleeping in WAAAY too long. Like til 2. Drives me stark raving maniacal. And Alisa is more often than not up really late doing homework, which she didn't do earlier in the evening because she was texting. Hey, they both have their priorities. And I have mine, which is to get some SLEEP. Since I am on the subject of teenagers, tomorrow I will have to write about the very interesting conversation we had with them last Sunday, about household chores.
However, for now, I am going to go to bed.
