I’m getting old
I was all about sleeping in this morning b/c i didnt have to work! Yay! I’m off every friday but I volunteer with a group called impact and teach sex ed and abstinence in Gwinnett Co. high schools. So most friday’s i am up earlier than on a regular work day. Seriously, i dont know how high shool teachers maintain getting up at the butt crack of dawn like that. So this week i have been stoked about sleeping in for the 1st time in months. Now i know all of you moms are snickering because you never get to sleep in…or sleep at all! And props to you…I dont think i can function on less than 8 hours sleep. So today I set my alarm for 9am thinking that i dont want to sleep the day away. I watched all my favorite shows last night, not worrying about how late it got…Survivor, Scrubs, Gray’s Anatomy…then my eyes opened this morning to the glorious sun and it was so beautiful. I didnt even wake up to my alarm (which I hate…waking up on your terms is so much better!). Then i looked at the clock. 7am. 
WHAT? I’ll just go back to sleep, i thought. So i tried. I faked sleep while jeff got ready for work, as he kissed me on my cheek before he left, as spud came in and looked up at the bed, decided I was no fun and ran back out…i faked sleep for 45 minutes before i sucked it up, accepted that I am getting old (as determined by this biological clock that only OLD people have that wakes them up before they have to) and got up to blog about the unfortunate nature of the beast. Oh, and my back hurts. And something popped as I was getting out of bed and sounded like a fire-cracker. Yep, I’m getting REAL old.
