So I am still sleeping like a rock... well it is more like, I don't even know I am falling asleep because it is so fast, the next thing I know, I am just waking up and the whole night has gone by.  On top of it, it only feels like minutes have passed.  For a few minutes after I wake up, I feel really good (but that always fades).  Which when that happens, I know I am going into my "coma" sleeps. 

From the time we left for our trip, I didn't want to say "I'm tired" or yawn in front of EO, as I didn't want him to feel that he had to stop or to even get tired himself.  I just tried to keep on talking with him.  When we did stop the one night for a couple hours, I was out in an instant and when he woke me to start heading out again, I thought minutes had passed.  I have been doing that ever since.  Although I managed through this trip, it was very taxing on me.   Because I only do this coma sleep when my body is maxed out.

The days are clicking by and I had to buckle down and get some service time in.  EO & the girls went out for a 5 1/2-6 hr service day and I put in a 4 hr service day.  I only need 8 more hours to make my 30 hrs.  EO needs 7 1/2 hrs.  & the girls need a little more than that. It is so good to be able to have such a full share.  I wish we could do this all the time.  Ok, so we can put in 30 all the time, but to aux pioneer all the time.  Well, we appreciate that we can have this opportunity. 

I was just freezing today.  It is so damp and cool out and I am so achy, that I had to light a fire.  EO hauled in some more wood, he said with  all the rain it is good to have a fire going at night.  It doesn't take long for a wood fire to take a chill of the house.  I just love it.

Lauren brought Grandma's carbonated drink maker home with her.  She wanted us to try it to see if we like it.  I had Lauren make me the root beer one.  It is really good.  I'm impressed.  I think I will ask her if we can use it when Colton has his karaoke party.  If mom says it is fine, I will ask Colton if he wants to use it.   I think it would be fun to be able to make up your own drinks.
