This first week of back to school has been harder then I thought. Honestly. The 6am alarm has been going off, but I am actually not hearing it until the 6:10 buzzard. I am sleeping threw the first one, and shutting it off while asleep. Not good. So the 6:10 goes off and I stretch, which is hard due to a child curled up between the husband and me. I turn off the alarm so not to wake the husband…. And the 6:20 alarms goes off… Fuck.

So I stretch again, this time more room due to child moving closer to dad. I hit the snooze again so as not to wake the husband…. And the 6:30 alarm goes off….. Fuck it!

Monday, I woke up at 6:00 no problem. Tuesday the 6:10 crawled me out of bed. Wednesday, I got up at 6:20 perfectly fine…. Thursday, I had troubles at 6:30… Today, I almost slept in till 6:40…. This is not good peoples.

But I crawled out of bed, grabbed my clothes and dressed, with said child that was sleeping soundly, waking up. I got 5 “Mommy, your up!” hugs as I made my way out of my room… I am finally dressed and slightly awake as I make my way down the stairs to the kids’ rooms…

First victim, er, I mean child, is Dokota… I open the door, which startles him awake (not sure why since I do this daily….) and go to be even crueler and turn on the light. The light flashes, and is out. grrrrr.

Kauchana is the next to wake up. She is a bit harder, mostly because she thinks she can be a total B and then smile and that makes it all better. I honestly hate waking her because of how she acts.

Xavier is the easiest to get up. Turn on light and he jumps out of bed and dresses within 3 minutes. That child is total morning child. Makes me sick.

Head back up stairs and Derric is already chowing down on breakfast. After his first little bag of poptarts, he is downstairs getting dressed and comes back up for seconds. That child can eat, when you find food he will actually eat!

Tis the same morning routine, but it seems everyday is getting harder and harder to actually wake up. Today I need to head to the BX, need light bulbs. Both Dokota and Kauchana’s rooms are out. I’ll by the bulbs, but they need to clean those rooms so I have room to replace them. I’m not sure I even know the colors of their floors anymore…

I also need to list my elliptical and waterbed on the yard sales website for this base. I have about 6-10 more weeks before my new bed arrives. So waterbed needs to be gone, and the elliptical needs out so I can move my bookcases from my room to the office. Which will clean up my bedroom greatly. Those bookcases make my room feel tiny and cluttered, even when it isn’t. And if we had thought about it more when buying the bed, we could have gotten the entire set because we are moving the bookcases, which will clear up room for the dressers. But we didn’t think about that when we bought it. Maybe an addition later in life. Right now, I just want my new bed.

Of course this does mean I have 6-10 weeks to break Derric of crawling in bed with me.. The water bed is easily to clean if he sleeps to hard and wets the bed. An actual mattress will be even harder. That is why his bed has the plastic. I don’t want plastic on my bed…

Oh well, I am rambling like crazy. I have an hour before the BX opens, two hours before the T-Mobile/TKS shop opens. I might be getting an iPhone, just need to do some research!!
