fabulous Friday
I didn't sleep well again and was very tired when I got up. I didn't get to the pool and actually thought about not going to work. After I had my shake and shower I felt better and headed out.
I was so excited that a blue fleece sweater that I haven't been able to wear for a while fit me again. However, when I got to work it was just too hot to wear. I was asked to go to one of the other high schools to pick up work for a suspended student, so I stopped by the house to change...phew!
I had a great morning and felt good after we got busy. I also decided to wear a hat which I got a lot of compliments on. The afternoon at the office was also really productive. I brought home some yummy leftovers from last nights meeting for the kids for supper. Tim, Jen, Kelly, Danny, Jason and Anne all went to the movies, so I had 2 boys and 2 girls. Well, even though Grace and Emmy loved the chili and pizza, Daniel and Sam were having nothing to do with it. No way, no how. I would have been happy to eat the chili as people raved about it and it was full of veggies. I resisted thanks to the fact I still had a shake to have. The boys ended up having digestive cookies with nutella, mmmmm.
By the time we all had a bath, watch Tarzan, brushed all those little teeth and got everyone settled, I was pooched. The girls are in the recliners and the boys with me, so if they get restless, I'm going to the spare bed. The kids are such a comfort to me, I expect I will sleep like a baby too.
Hopefully we will all be up for market in the morning. Send me any sleepy vibes you can spare.
Love, elly

From my perspective, those days when I beat my alter ego are the very best. I know from experience what I would have felt like at the end of the day in which I had caved to him and stayed in bed. And so it is double rewarding when, not just did you fend him off, but you had a rewarding day in spite of his efforts! Good on you Elly!
