A Day Without Coffee

What was I thinking?  This picture even taunts me.  I LOVE COFFEE.  I know that may sound like a person who may be “addicted” to the hot yummy beverage… well, it is.  I think that I need to be put on the TV show, Intervention… “My name is Christine and I am addicted to coffee.”

I guess that would not make good television.  Apparently, without coffee, I nap.  That’s all I’ve done today… I took two 2-hour naps today.  What is with that?  It was not a very productive day.

Why live without coffee?  I’m just getting tired of the up-and-down feeling I get during the day.  I am reliant on coffee as my primary fuel of the day, but there are other factors that may be contributing to how I feel… like diet and exercise.  I just need to get back on track and not sure how.

I am getting some dietary advice from one of my former students and I appreciate her input and passion for the area.  Truth be known, as I write this blog… I am making a pot of coffee.  I know that it is 9 o’clock at night, but I need a cup of coffee.  Now.  Without coffee, I am not feeling up-and-down…. I’m not feeling steady… I’m just feeling tired… very, very tired. 

I have much to do and accomplish.  I can’t afford to sleep ALL DAY.  Therefore, I will also take the advice of making changes in small incremental steps instead of going cold turkey.  Withdrawal is not a good feeling.  Well, I must go now.  Coffee is ready.  I need to grab a delicious cup of java.
