Sleeping in? You Fool!


Why is when you have a day you can sleep in you just can’t? Your body and mind wake up and you’re ready to rock and roll at 7am!! I guess I should look at is an hour more of sleep then I usually get. I’m mentally squeezing that optimist that raises their ugly head every once in awhile in my life. What a minute it wasn’t me waking up on my own, it’s all coming back to me. I was awoken by the toilet paper roll noise; my house guest was spinning the toilet paper roll like it was a wheel. Who knew that a toilet paper roll could make that much noise? Well now I know since he was beating on it like a drum. Then went back to his room and promptly slammed the door, really dude it’s attached and it’s an interior door not a lot of force is needed.

Since I’m already up I’m going to go curl up on the couch and have some me time. Silly optimist I thought I pushed you down? Not shortly after I get up the whole house is up and running, well except Rick he actually left at 6am to work the tailgate party and then the Sea-Hawks Game. So much for being lazy today, I better get breakfast going before grumpy does the turtle thing. You know comes out of his room peeks around the corner in the kitchen, then walks slowly up to the living room peeks around that corner, looks at me then turns around and goes back into his room. Throw together a quick omelet and start doing the dishes, then I move on to more laundry (I think the neighbor must have added in his again … LOL). After breakfast clean up yet again the dishes and the table, I really wonder how much food makes it in the boys’ mouth!

A real relaxed day I even got a nap in while the boys did woo-hoo! We even made a quick trip to Wal-Mart which made everyone happy to get out of the house, like I keep them locked away (my teenager want-to-be thinks so). So much fun we had with a high energy 4 year old and a 10 year old who thinks he is now the parent and keeps giving stern directions, HELLO am I not standing here right next to you? This weekend was not a good time to push me I finally reached my boiling point and had a few of my own stern talks about pushing and pinching. Just because someone is in your personal space doesn’t give you a right to push, punch or pinch (the 3 “P” rule is now in place).

Once home I started dinner and unpacked the groceries, I even got Cole’s lunch made. Feed everyone and even had a moment to talk on the phone with a friend, a nice night minus the silent treatment from my house guest. Oh well guess a goodnight to you also! Finished up the last load of laundry for the day, hung up everyone’s clothes took a batch to grumpy boy who ignored my knocks and call of his name, after a few attempts I knocked and walked in. Still my house I need to take it back and not let a child run it, Today I stand strong and not taking anymore crap! LOL … ok at least I’m trying.

  1. Yay! Take no crap day! I love it! I hope you can stick with it.
    I know what you mean about the sleeping in thing though stupid brains wanting to be on a schedule, sheesh!
    Glad everyone was happy to get out of the house. I am fixing to get to WalMart today and don't have a clue how I am going to shop with two of 'em. At least Abby isn't big enough to pull things off the shelves yet.
