Who knew that a 3 hour nap could be so...........TRANSFORMATIVE!
I haven't been sleeping well lately. I can narrow it down to a few reasons:
1) Baby P seems to have the "go, go, go" personality of her Daddy. Or maybe she's just practicing his cool-cat dance moves. Either way, she's a MOVER! Whenever I think what the two of us needs is sleep, she thinks otherwise! KICK, KICK!
2) Due to my seemingly on-going state of dehydration, I've been drinking water non-stop. Alas, the only thing it seems to effectively do is keep me running to the washroom all night long! Like.....hourly.
3) I'm ACHY! My back and legs throb like you wouldn't believe. It's like I've been working with a personal trainer for hours on end. (And a really SWEET one at that!)
Anyways, the important thing is that this afternoon, I crashed BIG TIME for THREE HOURS!!!! Phil left the house for ball and the minute he was out the door, I was eyes-closed and comatose! HOORAY!
Here's the best part:
Immediately after my delightful Z session, I was able to accomplish the following:
* 1 hour on the treadmill
* the dishes
* muffin-making
* a shower - WITH FULL PRESSURE....for the first time in DAYS!
* a toasted-tomato sandwich
As a stereotypical non-napper, I'm hoping I can convert myself and reap the benefits of these blissful affairs. WOWZERS they're GOOD!
Yesterday's Thanksgiving event was a success! I will share some pictures with you another time.
XOXO
