fun at night


Here's something fun to do in the middle of the night.

Find a comfy position early on in the evening.
Fall dead asleep.
Around 2:00 a.m., have your daughter come in and wake you out of dead sleep by announcing:

"MOM. I accidentally took out my rubber bands."

Get up and straggle to the bathroom. 
Make sure you do not run into the door.

Grab two miniscule rubber bands and try to put them on without your glasses and sleep in your eyes.
Pick pink because you can see them.
Put child back to bed.

Go back to bed your self.  Curl up, listen to your husband snore, and give yourself time to write this adventure into a blog post in your head, wondering all the while if you will ever fall back asleep.

Repeat at random times.


Really.
Tons 'o fun.

Have a fabulous day.
Lynn

  2. Poor Lynn,
    Oh I must be on a different cycle than you all, I have been up for so many nights now and last night was my first real night of full sleep.
    But I get what your saying where the mind just won't let you go back to that peaceful deep sleep.
    How you ever got those tiny rubberbands on in that condition I will never know...lol

  8. Ummmmm...how does one a)accidentally take out those rubber bands and b)at 2 in the morning?! I'm not buying it at all. Not that it matters. I'm not the one having to deal with it :-) You are dedicated. I would have snarled, "Just go to back to bed Brenna" and conked out again. Hope you have resumed sleeping the night through.

    After that would be a great time for a good book, a granola bar and a glass of milk,,,,,,,,
