I know what would probably be really helpful later on – having a yard. I can’t go for a walk of course, not with the kids here, but if I had a yard I could at least take the monitor with me and go out there. I suppose I could go on the balcony but all I can really do out there is sit down. I’d look pretty silly walking back and forth on the balcony like a pacing lion. 🙂

I might do it anyway. And I’m not really in the mood to have a shower, but I might at least splash some cold water on my face. I think the caffeine has magically removed itself from my body but I don’t want another actual coffee right now. Not yet, I need to save it for much later.

Still, only 8.5 hours to go! I figure that refugees go without sleep for much more than 24 hours and they don’t have the luxury of sitting in front of a computer while they’re up. If I can stay awake and keep posting every half hour until 9 tomorrow morning, I will have raised a great deal of money for refugees, so I’m going to suck it up!
