Catching up with old friends

I have good intentions, but I don't always get a chance to follow through in calling or emailing friends, especially those who don't live in my town. It does make me feel good to talk to a friend I haven't heard from in a while. I keep up with most of my college girlfriends and we try & get together at least once a year (if you are one of them & reading this, we are OVERdue!). Recently I've also got on Facebook and found a lot of friends, mostly from college & a few from high school too. It's so fun to see who they married, if they have any kids, where are they living, etc.... you know the drill. My first college roomate found me on facebook recently & we reconnected after almost 11 years! I got a chance to talk to her on the phone today. I said I would never do the Myspace thing. Then I did. Then I said I would never do the Facebook thing because I was already blogging & doing Myspace... then I did. I'm glad though. Otherwise I would never have had the chance to catch up with so many friends.

Naps: Friend or Foe?

I love Sunday. First because I get to go worship in a great church & sing with a great bunch on our praise team which is lead by a wonderful worship pastor. I also love Sunday because of naps. We get home from church, eat, change clothes (usually back into my pj's), put Kensley to bed, Corby turns on the TV & I either claim a couch or just go to my bed. I don't nap, I sleep... like several hours of sleep. Today, I slept from 1:30 to a little after 4 when Kensley woke me up. However, there is a problem with naps. I usually wake up ill or still tired because someone has woken me & I didn't get up on my own free will... or internal clock... whatever. It takes me an hour or so to get back into the groove. Also, I normally wake up with a headache. I guess because I've slept so long. Then, we have the problem that I am experiencing now. It's 12:46 am & I'm still not sleepy. Well, no wonder! I slept all afternoon. So, I'm in a dilema. If I don't get my Sunday nap, it literally affects the rest of my week...I'm so sluggish and sleepy. But, if I do get my nap, it affects my Monday mornings (I have a hard time getting out of bed), sometimes I will take another nap when Kensley goes down for her morning nap, which affects my week as well because it makes me feel like I need a nap everyday. Can I really win on this one?

PS... is anyone having trouble using their spell check when composing a post? I've not been able to get it to work for several days.
