In rereading this, I think I phrased that opening poorly.<BR/><BR/>For the record, I grudgingly admit that she is indeed a very good one. But don't tell her I told you so.<BR/><BR/><B>Mama Dawg:</B> Whispers at 747 level would be nice, but the kids aren't old enough to get down quite that low yet. We can't wait!<BR/><BR/><B>Tierd:</B> You guys and us both, buddy. You've definitely got to start trying this. No sense in <I>both</I> of you suffering all the time. The only real problem this adds is whenever something needs to be done in the morning on a weekend and one of you has to be the one to "give up your day to sleep in."<BR/><BR/>But if you really are like us, this won't come up often because the few things you have that truly "need" to get done almost never need to get done in the morning, by design.<BR/><BR/><B>Jennifer:</B> I'm so sorry for you.<BR/><BR/><B>J-:</B> Hey, who left the door open? We've got all kinds of riff-raff wandering in off the street looking for a handout! Someone slam it shut after I toss this bum out.<BR/><BR/><B>Chris H:</B> You must tell me more about this Major Surgery concept. It sounds pretty sweet-- is there some kind of a downside I don't know about? I can't imagine!<BR/><BR/><B>Sparkliesunshine:</B> She does it remarkably well sometimes, and just awfully the other times. There seems to be no in-between. I, on the other hand, am perfect, as I'm sure you've already gathered.LiteralDanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16704368269389527451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5076041415469800377.post-28815456411367568562008-07-16T08:45:00.000-05:002008-07-16T08:45:00.000-05:00Faining enthusiasm after just waking is one of the...Faining enthusiasm after just waking is one of the hardest things to do.

I am a spoilt tart.. but then... I am recovering from major surgery so it IS EXPECTED eh? Kids, gotta love them... until you've had 8 and been a mother for 29.7 bloody years, then they kinda get FRIGGIN ANNOYING.

Getting to stay in bed till noon, sleeping or reading or something (if the kids are too loud), is definitely a valuable asset and way to stay sane.<BR/><BR/>I suggest everyone try it for at least a weekend or two!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5076041415469800377.post-27068597892614637992008-07-15T19:23:00.000-05:002008-07-15T19:23:00.000-05:00LOL--Sounds like a lot of our conversations around...LOL--Sounds like a lot of our conversations around here!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13169651319563063662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5076041415469800377.post-1167881854041727552008-07-15T16:37:00.000-05:002008-07-15T16:37:00.000-05:00Y'all take turns sleeping in?

Because if I had a day to sleep in? I would lock the door to my room and wear earplugs, and be much less enthused if someone were to "ruin" that for me.
