6am Woke up and immediately sat up.
6:03 Realized I was dreaming sitting up and lay down again
6:20 Woke up for real and pulled warmer clothes over jammies.
6:30 Read a couple Web comics and checked Facebook.
6:40 Ate breakfast that my incredible husband fixed for me and filled four juice cups.
6:50 Made bed and began to sort stuff from desk on the bed in hopes of making a list. (desk occupied by husband working from home today. )
6:51 Brought Maggie onto our bed, because she seems to have a fever and was crying.
7am Anna wakes up and the girls go downstairs to eat breakfast. The thermometer didn’t detect a fever, but Maggie gets her daddy to carry her downstairs with a very pathetic whimper and request. I try again to sort desk piles.
7:07 Carolyn wakes up and I bring her downstairs to her juice and scramble eggs for her and Maggie. Anna prepares bagels.
7:11 Went upstairs and dressed Jordan, washed his face and got his shoes on.
7:20 Fixed Jordan’s breakfast and feed him. He is cranky this morning and only ate half his breakfast. I move his obstinate self into the play room and fill out a communication sheet for his kindergarten teacher and tuck it in his backpack.
7:45 Helped Carolyn dress herself (she wants to do it herself), finally responding to the much repeated call of the last two minutes. (mommy! mommy! mommy! ) She takes herself to the potty while I clean up some clothes on the floor.
7:54 Go to sit down to make my list at last and see the bus pulling into the driveway, so I run down and get Jordan onto the bus, letting the driver know that if he melts down and cries for long that I want a phone call… He seems happy to see the bus and I get and give hugs with Anna and Carolyn in the garage on my way back in. Anna offers to feed the cat.
8am Maggie gets started on chores and I try to decide how much of her behavior is sickness and how much is an act. Anna is doing great with her chores, Carolyn has wet undies and is on the potty again.
It’s 8:22am and my desk stuff is sorted into piles. and I am ready for a nap.
Update: Slept 9am-10am
WOW!!! I would be ready for a nap too!!!
