Sleepy...

I would like to come home everyday and have something to write in here but by the time I get home...I'm exhausted!

Running up to people's houses and trying to get them motivated to work out after I've been in and out of the car 20+ times each day sure takes a toll on me.
But still, I get out of my car with my belt and my weights and my bike and we get to work. I also use a lot of energy just getting people MOTIVATED to do some of the exercises when they think their arms or legs feel like a ton.
Weak muscles will do that to you.

Sometimes I have to drag people from their beds and help them transfer from it to their wheel chair. Most times more than 3 times a day.

Which in turn, leaves me wiped out at the end of the day.

I didn't really have much to blog about today...

So..since I am here, I wanted to (re) intruduce a few family bloggers who had stepped away from blogging for awhile.

And....have graced us with their presence....again.

First is my cousin CYN over at THE QUEEN OF RANDOM.
This girlie has come to Corpus with me and given me a hand with the kids while I worked during the summer. She's AWESOME! I love her.
She's got her hands full taking care of family and I know it must really be taking a toll on her but she should know...I am here to help.

Then we have my SIL in NY at Vivrant-Thing.
This girl is a mirror image of me.
I can see why my brother loves her and married her....although...not in a perverted "I want to marry a girl EXACTLY like my sister" kind of way.

That would just be weird!

BUT, it's still pretty eerie how my brother found my fraternal twin.
Ummm hmmm.

I'm on to you, bro.

So...Just to give you guys a "heads up". Devyn will be turning 8 in 2 days and I of course will have one of my picture blogs for your viewing pleasure.

What??

You know you love it. Who am I to deprive anyone of happiness?

See ya in a couple of days.

The Princess and the Pea...

Are any of you familiar with the fairy tale?

The Princess and the Pea?

That's who I am.

I'm the Princess (in some odd twisted way) and I have a crap load of "peas in my bed" keeping me from sleeping soundly.

We got a new PT at work and now I have more work but he also chose to pick up some of the caseload.

My 1 yr is coming up and he is worried about me leaving the company for a better paying job and leaving him to be stuck there.

My company is working my ass to the bone. I get home EXHAUSTED and I barely have enough energy to eat. Plenty of energy to sleep but I just can't seem to get enough sleep.

Now that the summer is here, I haven't really been pushing the bedtime that the kids usually have. This, is mainly because I happen to pass out prior to their "bedtime" and I end up waking up wondering if the kids are still awake. This happens around midnight some nights. Then I have to usher them to bed so that I can try to sleep peacefully the rest of the night.

Doesn't happen either.

Angel has to wake up early and be at work by 5 or 5:30 so....he has his alarm set for 3:11 AM.

Why 3:11?

Cause the man is a little strange.
Other nights he would have it set for 4:52 or some odd time.

SOOO...

Since my parents are back and the kids wanted to stay Friday night with them, they took them all. I figured this was the chance I get to spend some "quality" time with Angel and just chill.

We had it all planned out.

We were going to eat dinner and watch Elite XC (<-- Ok so I didn't get to plan the night).

We had leftover steak and I made beanie wienies. We filled up. Actually, I filled up. I pigged out and my body shut me down (again). It wasn't the type of shut-down where I didn't wake up until the morning.

NOPE.

I wish I were that lucky. I'd pass out and wake up every 15 or 20 min. I'd glance at the TV and there would be a fight going on. Then I'd shift positions and pass out again. Wake up and different fighters would be on the screen. This went on for 2 hrs.

I had to finish some notes for work so I started them. It was 11 pm. Angel had to work this morning so again....his alarm goes off at some odd hour and he gets up to start getting ready. It's 4-something AM at this time. I had just fallen asleep at 2 because of my crappy "power nap/food coma" episode. I figured I'd get to sleep in because EVERYONE is gone.

NOPE.

Tattoo was with me and for some reason he started meowing really loudly and he nibbled my arm and wouldn't let go, then he made some move like he was going to straddle me...uhhhhh..I got up to put him outside and that was that.

I'm up...doing laundry.

I WANT TO SLEEP!!!!
