Morning people

This is not a post for those of you who wake up with a smile on your face, breath doesn't stink, hair perfect and look like you just had the best sleep of your life.  This is for people like me.  No matter how much I sleep I could still sleep more, I love to sleep.  It makes me happy.  I know that sounds crazy, because I can never fall asleep at night.  I would much rather sleep in in the morning.  Now let me clarify what I mean by sleeping in, 7:00AM is sleeping in.  My Darling Husband decided to tell me last night that if I just woke up when he does 4:56AM to be exact, my days would be a lot better, I would have "ME" time in the morning and I would be able to fall asleep when he does (he is in bed by 8:30ish)   not sleeping but watching tv and in bed.  Our kids go to bed at 8:00, why the hell do I want to immediately go to bed, I feel like there is so much I could accomplish at night.  Like my coupons for instance, I sat in the car cutting out coupons yesterday in front of the grocery store because I don't have time to do it at home.  Oh so DH tells me it's ok just do that in the morning before the kids wake up.  Really?!?! I'm not even functioning enough at 5:00AM to even make coffee let alone organize coupons and make grocery lists.  In a perfect world I would be up at 5:00 doing laundry making bread from scratch and knitting the kids sweaters, while cutting coupons, cleaning and prepping dinner for later that day.  Guess what?  We don't live in a perfect world and I am NOT Betty Crocker... Well maybe with cakes I am ;)... I think that there are just different types of people, I don't think it's a bad thing, I don't think it's a good thing.  I am not a morning person, I have tried, my sweet husband does not recall me waking up with him at 5:45 everyday last year.  So we shall have a challenge, starting next Tuesday I am going to wake up everyday at 4:56 with him, by Friday if I can stay up past 10:30PM I can have ANYTHING I want... hmmm... Don't tempt me, :) It's on..... 

Had to add the pic of the nappy household I live in :)

Now that we have decided to do this challenge, I am also going to plot my revenge, so when I accomplish this waking up early shit, I will then make my husband take a week off of work when he has his next vacation and do what I do everyday, MWAHHAHAHAHA (evil laugh) I would be more then happy to wake up at 5:00 everyday and leisurely get myself ready make my lunch, brush my teeth, watch the news, and leave the house ALONE to go to work... Instead I get myself and 2 kids dressed, fed, clean the house, do laundry, go shopping, blah blah blah all this crap that I don't want to do and especially don't want to do with 2 screaming toddlers, but I do it.  I don't complain, I don't complain when DH is tired and wants to go to bed at 8:30.. Go .... I'm just not going with you, I'm not tired, my mind won't let me sleep and I'd rather be doing things around the house, blogging and having "ME" time at night.  Sometimes I wish I could be a morning person, it must be nice to be able to fall asleep at night and wake up refreshed and happy ... Not I, I'm better at night, maybe it's a guy thing, guys also like to have sex in the morning, their hormones are made for that, women usually don't, our hormones are best at night.  I think we shall just live opposite schedules for the rest of our lives and eventually meet again when we are old fogies and both go to bed at 7:00 and wake up at 5:00 LOL... until then, it is what it is... Happy Sleeping!!!

Eventful Day.

Where to start?  I'm not sure, what is the proper way to write a blog?  I'm sure I could google it and there would be a million answers... But I'll just do it my way, I'm sitting here and (well actually laying here) wondering if it's hard for people to sleep in bed while their significant other is on their laptop?  I'm only wondering because my husband is sleeping with his head almost on my computer :)


So this morning I was supposed to wake up early and organize coupons, nope, didn't happen.  So I was trying to organize them before going to the store, it was like 80% organized.  We rushed out of the house to remember that I needed brake pads.. Really needed them, so I went to drop off coffee at my mom's house, and it begins... She needs a ride to my sister's, ok no big deal.  Get there blah blah ok 45 minutes later, we are on the way to Stop & Shop.  By now kids are getting restless in the car, luckily I didn't have too many things to get at this store.  Well little Miss was not behaving herself at all in the store.  I don't like Stop & Shop's 2 kid carriages, they suck, I like Targets the best!!!! Market Basket is ok too.  So she was walking and Mr. was in the cart, this all took around 1 full hour, screaming Ariana and Jordan decided to tell me 1000x "I poop't" very loud.  Now I leave there after going through self checkout and having the coupon machine try to steal my coupons... I am fading...patience thinning, Dunkin' Donuts is where I should have gone next.. Nope to Target, stayed in the car, Rachel just ran in, then ATM, then brake pads, Wellington, dropping Rachel off, calls 5 minutes later is going home now.  Now I'm home and I start doing some cleaning crap.  I don't like to clean regularly, I go on cleaning sprees where I will do what I call a major "douching" of the house (No offense).  But today I felt like cleaning ceiling fans, I always get distracted while cleaning and end up doing something pointless, like cleaning ceiling fans.  


Ate lunch in between all that somewhere with little Miss while Mr. took a nap.  Made videos with them singing songs, Jackie came over and watched kiddo's while Hubb was changing my brakes and Sam and I were off to bootcamp! YES! This is soo what I had been looking forward to all weekend!  We got to do the prowler.. Which I have a love hate relationship with... Felt awesome, got home Billy figured out I didn't actually make it full food shopping today so he drove Jackie home and got some pizza.  As he pulls in the driveway, I get a call from my Jackie saying my younger brother fell and she thinks he broke his wrist.  Ok, where is mom?  AA meeting.           Great, she sends me a pic of it, it looks pretty bad so I say ok I'm coming to take him to the ER.  Oh yes my night was fun...  We get there, well I'm not his mother, so they won't treat him. . .  Why does my mother shut her phone off the entire time! ? ! ?  Ok so we wait, finally talk to her, they do xray, she gets there, not broken, ok peace I'm outta here!


Get home, finally in bed trying to relax and all I can think about is how I should be getting my coupons and list very ready for market basket tomorrow......


&&& The happiest birthday wish EVER!! To the most amazing, sweet, wonderful Mother in-law !!! Hope it's perfect.  I'm still trying to think of the most amazing gift for her.. 


And still thinking for a name for my blog :) Goodnight fellow bloggers and late night readers, Hoping for an amazing sleep for an amazinnnggg start to my tomorrow.  

still need a name...

August 29, 2011

So this morning I woke up to Ariana and Jordan coming in my room to wake me up and Jordan saying "Mama diaper all gone"... Great normally I could sleep about an extra 25 minutes if I turned on cartoons in my bed with them.  Not now, too much destruction could occur.  So I take a chance and say, "Ariana go get me a diaper, the ones you just slide on."  She leaves and about 90 seconds later comes back with Jordan in a regular diaper.  She is only 4 and can put a diaper on her brother.  HAHA I thought that was pretty cute.

By the way I got those Slip On diapers at target for $2.99 per pack.  You can get them even cheaper at Walgreen's and CVS I think.  I have a goal to organize coupons tomorrow, really early, so I can actually go food shopping... (fingers crossed) without spending a million dollars.  

So I will have a very nice eventful, stressful, day tomorrow with the kids to write about.  At least I will have bootcamp tomorrow night, I will need it :) durbrow performance training 

I am geting super excited for this cool weather today, I want to bake pies and cookies and cakes again.  I am in crazy need of baking and decorating.  Caleb's cake is coming up very soon!  This is going to be a cute one... Speaking of cute ones ... I got to meet little Logan yesterday!! He is adorable.  Congrats to Rayna and Sean, I will babysit anytime :)

Now after a not so eventful day I am calling it a night and going to sleep.  My amazing hubb just brought me a goodnight snack and I'm pooped.  Goodnight, sweet dreams, & diapers on in the morning ;)

& Hopefully a name for my blog (yes I feel cool because I said my blog)
