Thanks! I woke up very early (BEFORE my house rooster started crowing) when the outdoors cockerels got going. (I notice that my unattached bachelors crow earlier and more often than those with families.) In my sleepy haze, I worried that Monkey might not be ok (since I couldn't hear him) - not that I had a reason to. So I got up to check. The little 1 week old chicks were milling around in the dim light (turned their light on), and when I went to see Monkey, he raised his head to look at me like, "what?", then dozed off again. He wanted to sleep in - got up and started crowing about 30 minutes later. (Domesticity changes a fella, apparently.) 

So, I figured I should take advantage of being awake (since I suppose I could crash any time!). I had fed and set out the sourdough starter last night, and so I made the bread dough this morning (will rise most of the day - it's the slow, minimal-work, no-knead method), and I'm currently making a batch of boiled eggs for next week. 

I'm only supposed to have one cup of coffee, but I am thinking maybe I'll make an exception and have a second cup - don't tell my doctor...

Good morning. Mine even checked the vitamins I was taking for caffeine.

Was it a triplet set, or a twinset?
