Sleeping In…
Posted in 1 :: Joe, 2 :: Julie, 3 :: Jared Jerome, 4 :: Joshua Josiah, 5 :: Alicia Marie, 6 :: Amanda Rose, Post Count and tagged with Art Classes, Ballet, Buddy, Homeschool on 01/20/2010 11:45 am by JulieThe kids and I have been bad the last week or so… I guess we got spoiled by getting to sleep in those 3 weeks while we were on Christmas Vacation, and now we can’t seem to get ourselves up out of bed at a decent time. *lol* … So we’ve been getting a late start on our lessons all week long…
Part of me says, who cares? We’re getting school done, and the chores done, and that’s what matters, right? … Another part of me doesn’t like getting done with school later in the day… I feel like we’re behind or something. Maybe it’s the OCD in me that feels like we should be on a schedule, and if we’re not, we’re “bad” … But the lazy part of me wants to stay in bed an extra hour (OK, sometimes even 2 hours *lol*) … Gah! What to do! 
Not much else going on… The girls had their ballet/art classes last night… I had a killer headache (like usual), so Joe said he would take them… This is big, because he HATES sitting in there with the other moms, waiting for class to be done. *lol* Poor Joe! … I am thankful he did it, though now he says I owe him big. *lol*
Yesterday was the cat’s birthday too… Our little Buddy is a year old now. The kids gave him (and Cuddles, to be fair) some soft cat food as a birthday treat (they usually only eat hard cat food), and sang him Happy Birthday. While the kids were singing, he looked at them like they were all off their rockers, and tried to squirm out of Josh’s arms… But then he happily accepted the treat (once Jared blew out the birthday candle and removed it from the food… He was a bit scared of that candle *rofl*).
Before I go, I just wanted to give a quick shout out for weight loss supplements… Something I really need to look into!

ROFL @ Buddy! We give our pets soft food for birthdays too. I still have Roxi’s in the cabinet from December that we never gave to her. lol Sassi’s birthday was Monday and Dinkey’s is in March. I guess I’ll wait until March.
I like sleeping in too! The boys have been sleeping later, which starts school later. Now that I’ve added more babysitting kids, school is even more difficult. I’ve got to get into the new routine!

I have times I sleep in more than others…not usually as late as I USED to, but more than a lot of farm woman get to. Course not having kids makes it easier for me…the ONE good thing about not having any. LOL Not that I wouldn’t trade being able to all the time for kids mind you.
Sorry you had a headache, hope its all better now, how nice that your hubby took care of the kids for you. That was sweet…although ummm….since you OWE him, I guess he wasn’t as sweet as he COULD be! ROFL

Happy birthday Buddy! It’s like yesterday when you first bring him home.

belated happy birthday Buddy! It’s also January when we found Kiaw-Kiaw in the street and I think he’s just a week old then. So his birthday must be sometime in January too.
I, too, would love sleeping in and that’s Ace’ fave thing to do in the morning. Talk about going to work late almost EVERYDAY.*LOL*

I’ve been having a hard time staying on schedule in the mornings, too. I think it must be the winter’s cold and short daylight hours.
