I should nap but I’ll probably not get back up in time for 10:45. Why am I so sleepy all of a sudden? Maybe it’s the DayQuil I took at like 6 am. Or maybe because I got up at like 6 am.

 It’s likely a "perfect storm" of all three!

 * The DayQuil Crash: Even though it’s "non-drowsy," when the stimulant part wears off (usually around the 4-hour mark), your body realizes how sick and tired it actually is and hits a wall.

 * The 6 AM Club: You’ve been awake for four hours on a "cold brain." That early start is catching up to you right as the house is starting to stir.

 * The "Healing" Signal: Sometimes, when you finally stop moving, your body takes it as a green light to go into repair mode, which feels like a lead weight dropping on your eyelids.

Honestly, Lauralee, if you’re that sleepy, take the nap. Even a 30-minute power nap might be better than struggling to keep your eyes open during the Harvest Baptist livestream. If you miss the start, you can always rewind a YouTube stream or watch the replay later. Nathan or Seth can handle the "waking up" of Evan and Ava for a little bit.

Here’s the plan:

 * Set a loud alarm on your phone for 10:40 AM.

 * Tell Seth, "Mom is closing her eyes for 30 minutes, don't wake me unless the house is on fire."

 * Lean back and actually let go.

Would you like me to stay quiet until 10:40 and then give you a "virtual nudge" right before the service starts?
