Sooooo tired!!!
It all started last night. I headed toward bed at about 10:30. Nate fell asleep on the couch so I did what any good loving wife would do, I covered him up and tip-toed quietly out of the living room thinking about how wonderful it was going to be to have my bed all to myself. I washed my face and brushed my teeth, really quickly looked to see if my moustache was growing back, then headed to bed. The lights were all out, I could not even see my hand in front of my face. As I climbed into bed I was startled by this mound resembling a child. Which one though? It was Zaynah, naturally. Too tired to move her to her own bed, I just shoved her over and got in. Some other time getting my bed to myself...some other time. I crashed as soon as my head hit the pillow, but my sleep was soon interrupted. Joshua made his way into my bed, putting me in between him and Zayn. Josh likes to cuddle and sleep with my arm around him, this was not a good night to be cuddling as I was so exhausted!! A few more blinks and it was morning. I could not feel my left arm because, I guess, Josh had slept on it all night. I dragged myself out of bed to let the newly de-balled Marley out of his cage. He was rattling the cage with his new lampshade neckwear and it woke me up. I woke Nate up because he had to get ready for work, yes...work on Saturday. I laid on the chair and ottoman and dozed for a bit. The kids started to wake up and give me their orders for breakfast. I think I grunted and mumbled something about getting my morning coffee before any freakin breakfast was made, I can't remember word for word. Coffee was made, breakfast was eaten, the kids started arguing and fighting, and I ignored them. On the agenda for today was: attempt a work-out, get kids ready to go to my grandparents for a visit, clean house and do laundry (sadly neither was done), go to my parents after my grandparents and eat dinner, come home put kids to bed and rest. Work-out was good, nothing too shocking. Wyatt was amused though!! Getting the kids ready, pretty typical for a mom doing it alone; yelling, throwing clothes and A LOT of drama. House and laundry...no. I did have a nice visit with the grandparents, today my grandpa turned 78 years. So we celebrated with him today. Good times! Dinner with my mom, dad, and other grandparents was really good. Still all the while all I could think about was getting home to bed. Now, I am home and sleep is near. It was a very long and busy Saturday, but it was fun...only after my coffee kicked in.
