Pity me or feel my pain

Ok, it's 2:33 in the morning, and I can't sleep. I've tried. I'll try again. I don't give up on something like sleep.

I feel ill. My stomach is queasy and my head hurts, and I just want to be asleep. I love sleep.

I have to be at the dairy barn to milk cows in five hours, after which I will take care of two children along with a new member, Mushroom. I realize I can ask Mushroom to take care of Kharma and Luuk by herself, and she'll do it, she's a very capable young woman. And I may not be the most fun to hang out with tomorrow, after milking, depending on how much sleep I get.

I did make quota yesterday. I did. Hurray for me. I didn't really see my family much, but I did work. Do I get a gold star?

Ok, I shall make another valient attempt.
much love,
Kelpie

Do I get a gold star?

Yes! Now if only you could trade gold star credits for labor credits. Or being-an-amazing-person credits for labor credits. Or priestessing credits for labor credits.

Love to you.

No gold star if your skipping your fam to make quota. But i am confident in your ability to balance thee things.
