Insomnia?

I got up this morning at 3 (to give Brynn a sucker) - and couldnt go back to sleep, too many things I wanted to get done & kept telling myself, "if you're not tired, get up & mop the floor" but then I argued back "If you get up and mop the floor, then you won't be able to fall back to sleep" in cross examination, I thought "Idiot, you can't fall asleep, so what are you complaining about not mopping cause you won't fall back to sleep?" and then I said "Can't we both just get along?" so there I tossed around in bed fighting with myself until 6:00 when Kali came in from a nightmare & wanted to sleep with me, so I let her lay down until I kicked her out of bed at 6:45 cause she was an egg beater & I couldn't sleep w/ her in there, so after she got out of bed, I fell back to sleep and woke up at 7:15 when Kiersten came in to tell me the sam-mich bags were gone - which is bizzaar cause it was full yesterday - so I went storming about the castle asking who took them - come to find out - Kali & Howie decided to make water balloons out of the ziplock sandwich bags & they popped them all in the bathtub. So we had to wrap the sam-miches up with tin foil. Then I made the kids brush their teeth...I know, cruel beeeotch. Not only that, I made Rossi pick up his jamma's off the floor of the bathroom - man, I'm a slave driver...and now I can't go back to sleep - I'm tired, I tried to lay back down, and there's just too much to do today, I have to make the dinners (I'm doing chicken divan - I should make flavorless spaghetti & cottage cheese with too little red sauce in it, but I'm bigger than that) but the cool thing is I get to use my new ricer. YAY!

A new ricer? What? Did Heidi get herself a kitchen treat? YES SHE DID, why? What happened to your ricer? Nothing, it works fine, I got it fer a weddin' gift but it only makes 3 cups, and my kids eat more than that, not only that, if I'm cooking for everyone in the city, then I need more than 3 cups. Yep, while I was on my spending spree, I also bought a 4 slice toaster....Why? what happened to the black&decker you got for your wedding? Nothing, but it only cooks 2 slices at a time and, well, I have 5 kids...4 of them have teeth & actually eat toast fresh from the toaster. So now I have a toaster, a ricer & a toaster & a ricer. SO should I sell the fine "smaller" ones on e-bay or should I just give them away? I'll give it to the DI. I hate giving things away to "no one" I mean, I can't, I should just keep them until my kids get married, then they can have sentimental value for their kids - is a toaster an heirloom?
