Rations

Sometimes, I give Hannah too much information. I'm willing to admit that. And now I'm getting to pay for it... by not getting to partake in some of my favorite beverages.



They have been replaced... by these:



Because THIS little person is rationing my caffeine intake...


For now, I'm allowed "2 Mommy-Cranky-Juices" (aka: caffeinated beverages) per day, but she was clear to specify that I can't carry unused "caffeines" over to the next day. The 2 that are currently allowed will drop to 1 in a couple of weeks, and then none. After which we will ween me off of soda altogether, using the same 2 to 1 to none method.

The only ration-free sodas for now are Sprite and some root beer. "But root beer is a lot like a caffeine, so you shouldn't have too many."

My available replacement beverages are milk, juice, and water - with an emphasis on juice and water. And I'm supposed to drink more water, even when I still get my 2 caffeines.

Now when did she get so smart? If it wasn't such a good idea, I'd tell her to knock it off...
