From Sneezy to Sleepy - trying not to be Grumpy

I never realized how much you can accomplish on so little sleep. I am starting to wonder if I will EVER have a full night's sleep again! One thing can be said for having babies young - when I was in my 20's I counted myself fully rested on 5 hours of sleep. That skill would certainly come in handy right about now. I'm sure I wasn't the easiest person to get along with in college, but I'm pretty sure I was a highly functioning, somewhat pleasant person - most of the time. Now, in my 30s - I'm wondering where all my energy went. Zappo - right to 3am feedings and 9 oclock story bedtimes, while trying to keep the house clean, dinner on the table and show up for work on time. Oh!

Some Saturday mornings, as it's 6:00 am and BOTH Annie and Gracie are wide awake and ready to go, I allow my mind to daydream to the days when they will be teenagers and it won't be until 10 oclock that I have to drag them out of bed. My thoughts don't stay there for long because - yikes! TEENAGERS??!??? - but I am looking forward to the days when I actually get to stay in bed for a significant period of time...sleeping...

Now about my husband keeping me up...*hee hee*
