Restful weekend??

Seems like every work day I can't wait for the wknd so I can get some rest. And what happens when the wknd comes? Stay up late and "sleep in". Problem is I get about the same amount of hours I have during the week. Now how does that work??

I'm really lucky. My MIL lives with us and VOLUNTEERS!! to get up with E on the wknds. In fact, she gets her up and dressed just about every morning. Talk about spoiled!! I get up at the same time but get showered/dressed while MIL get's E up. Then I get E bkft while MIL gets ready. It's a pretty good system we've got going on. And I appreciate the help SOOOO much.

DH started working in Lunenburg last Tues which means early mornings and late nights. So to spend time with E, he decided to get up with her Sat a.m. I got up too and made her pancakes for bkft, a little treat. Then we went over to MBF Shay's so our kiddies could play. We had a really nice visit and hope to do an adult visit soon. Sun a.m., DH, E & I went to church and then packed a picnic lunch and went to the park. It was so fun watching E go crazy, running all over the place, getting up on the playground equipment and sliding down the slides. The best thing was the rubber "flooring" they had on the ground. Great for when the kiddies fall.

Before the night was out, DH & I were feeling pretty tired. But of course, we didn't rest. We just stayed up - him playing video games on comp and me watching the tube. I got a migrane around 9 - 9:30, took some drugs and called it a night. So, here I am, back on a Monday morning ... wishing it was Friday so I could catch up on my sleep. :) Funny how that goes.

Take care,
