Sleep? What's Sleep?

I have had so little sleep the last couple of weeks and, as a result, I have noticed that I'm starting to do and say crazy things:

A couple of nights ago, I took the girls to some evening church activities. We were there for almost two hours. I even came out to the van to grab my purse during that time. As I was loading the girls back up into the van to go home, I noticed that I had left the passenger front window completely down and the driver window down halfway. My purse was sitting in plain view in between the two front seats. I couldn't believe it! I'm usually so paranoid about making sure everything is closed and locked.

I was leaving a message for my sister today. Right before I hung up, I said, "Amen!" instead of "Bye!"

I've caught myself about to throw dishes in the garbage instead of putting them in the sink.

Then there is just the usual forgetful things that I do on a regular basis even when I'm not sleep deprived, but they are happening more frequently right now. You know, the walk into a room and forget why you were there. Or go into another room and actually pick up the item that you think you need, only to realize once you get back that you didn't need that particular thing after all.

I need a very long vacation!
