Here’s the haps:
Last night when I posted I forgot that tonight I was scheduled for a sleep study tonight. For many years my poor wife has tolerated my snoring like a polar bear or my completely stopping breathing for a long time. My doc at the VA has been making things happen and this is one of them. I had a previous sleep study quite some time ago but the results never got into the right hands. I will be being fitted for a CPAP machine tonight.
There have been a couple of big, personal hurdles for me today. Fridays are a big day at work, business-wise and freight-wise. On top of that, I was not allowed to consume any caffeine at all. I could not have my hot, black coffee that’s so thick I could float a mule shoe in it. Oh, woe is me! Alas and alack the day! I have been crabby and my head hurts a bit. Oh, well. It’s just one day and if this is the biggest problem I ever have to face in life, I will probably be okay. Our Bishop’s wife once said, “You have already lived through the worst day of your life, several of them.”

I feel bad for coffee people. Especially when I make my terrible joke about when you cough you should be drinking coffee…
I am with you on missing coffee Herb. Good luck on the sleep study. Allan
Ihope the sleep study goes well.
I did not know that polar bears were known for snoring…
We just had our newborn circumcized. If you underwent the same treatment as a baby then yes, you’ve already had the worst day of your life. 🙂
And I never drink coffee. Stop whining.
Ha! Now you’ve made me sputter coffee all over the screen.
OUCH!!
I’ve been missing coffee for weeks. Still have a couple months to go. I’m used to the stimulant helping inflammation. I miss it.
I’m genuinely sorry to hear that.
This is why I am a tea drinker there are so many other versions to fall back on

True…
Oooooh, right there with you on the coffee!
I sometimes feel like the only person in the US over 50 who does not have a CPAP machine. My Mrs has one and it actually makes for some pleasant white noise and helps me fall asleep. I hope it’s working out for you.
Well, the VA hasn’t gotten back to me yet. I will write about it, though.
