REALITY BITES

So it's a little after 7 on Wednesday and I need to confess something.

I have failed.

Our "2 week practice run" for school has officially flopped.

I am relishing in the luxury that is the fact I don't have to be walking out the door right this very moment to get the men children to their respective child care providers.

The fact that I will not spend hours today looking over data and color coding numbers (because the process matters) and trying to figure out what I did wrong in getting juniors to take a state test seriously and not be consumed with Prom has motivated me to do nothing but sit right here on my couch and enjoy the fact that I can.

Not to mention the boys have been plotting against me for two weeks with their nightly routines. They are the best tag team sleepers I have ever seen. One night MC 1 can't sleep, next night it is MC 2. I can not tell you the last night HH and slept in the same bed all night long. Even this morning when I arose from the 2 ft. long couch in the boys room, I found HH on the couch in the living room. He did not even know I had left him 4 hours earlier.

Sadly come next week reality will kick in and most likely kick me in the backside.
It is a kick I will gladly take.
Besides I can take a nap in the afternoon.
