Ever have one of those days where the minutes drag by like hours? that's what today has been like for me, and I have no clue why. I woke up way before time for my alarm to go off this morning and couldn't doze back off, and to make matters worse I felt like I'd been run over by a Mack truck.
I got Bradley up first, just like always, and thought it would never be time to get 'Taye up, then after Bradley got finished eating the minutes literally dragged by while I waited til time to get his teeth brushed and dressed to go. Angela and I came straight back home after we dropped them off at school and we had to have our morning ritual of me trying to explain that it wasn't time for "Prollie" (Rolie-Polie-Olie) to be on, so she decided she wanted to watch "Dorothy" (Golden Girls) until time for "The House" lol
I finally felt like sitting up so I tossed in a load of laundry and had it folded and put away before Greg got home. We talked a little until he started falling asleep while I was talking lol how can men just nod off while we are in mid sentence? I put Angela down for her nap and decided I couldn't take being in the same room with Greg's snoring so I went to the bedroom to stretch out and watch tv and ended up dozing off, when I woke up I thought sure it would almost time for the bus to get here, boy was I ever wrong! I had only dozed for maybe 15-20 minutes and I've been awake ever since, I've been on the couch and in the bed both beating my fool self to death trying to fall asleep and can't for the life of me so here I sit. I think I'll go toss in another load of laundry and then go back to reading. Oh how I love insomnia..NOT! lol

Hi Aretha! I know all too well about the nodding off and the snoring. Jeff can fall asleep in 2 seconds flat. How lucky is he?...ROTFL...He snores like a freight train...You heard of sawing logs?...well I have a TRILLION trees in my living room....ROTFL...There is a mens manual on how to nod off while your other half is talking...and I know the special place where they go to read that manual....lmao...Have a nice weekend~Hugs~

Hi Aretha! There just must have been something in the air yesterday! You've already read my blog entry and it was my "feel like doing nothing day". It seems like the days pass by like that when you're either tired, or depressed, or both! LOL

I don't understand how men can nod off mid-sentence either, although I've heard it's called "selective hearing". ROFL

Jackson likes to watch "Polie" too, but he is usually watching the other channel (Nick Jr.).
