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!!!
