I stopped my morning coffee habit and almost ruined a driveway finish

Last week, I decided to cut out caffeine before work to see if I'd feel better. Big mistake, because halfway through finishing a driveway, I got so drowsy my trowel strokes went all wobbly. The homeowner came out and asked if I was trying a new artistic pattern, lmao. We had to spray it down and start over, which was a total pain.

What if you mixed regular and decaf coffee for a bit? @haydeng47's tea idea is good, but a gradual switch might prevent the drowsiness.

Maybe try switching to tea instead of going cold turkey. Idk, that worked for me when a similar thing happened with a patio job.

Remember getting brutal headaches cutting caffeine cold turkey. Felt like death for three days.
