Not enough coffee

Ask:
Not enough coffee to get me through this day. My 3 year old was up all night, I need a nap. Thing is, if I take a nap I feel jet lagged. Trying to just tough it out till bed. Anyone know what I mean??
Answer:

Oh yes... wish I had some advice, but all I have is a red bull and some No Doze... wanna share?
Answer:

Ya know, Andrea..that Red Bull does NOTHING for me. When my headache was so bad last week, I had dh bring me one home...hoping the caffeine would jolt it. It didn't, and I went to bed EARLY instead of staying up cleaning, etc!

Julie...what are your kids' ages? I have almost 18, almost 13, 11, 6, 4, and 3!
Answer:

they don't do anything for me anymore either, unless I have an energy cocktail (Redbull + 2 stacker 3)
Answer:

I feel for you! I do NOT function well on no sleep. When I'm tired I get grumpy - seriously grumpy.
Answer:

I know exactly what you mean (as most mom probably do!!). My kids have been sleeping well this weekend but last week was horrible.

I also find that if I have a nap during the day I have a hard time finding sleep at night and than I'm even more tired the next morning.

Sometimes going outside for fresh air helps for a couple of hours afterwards.

Good luck and as I always tell myself: tomorrow is another day!!!
