One for each and Eating Crow

Nate usually works on Saturdays. Today he was off at 1:00. Let me tell you, it really messed with the girls minds. They couldn't stop asking him why he was home:) Well, I decided today would be a good day for a pedicure. Nate didn't. So Megan and I headed off for pedis and Nate and Sammy headed off for some bowling. Sammy bowled in the high 90's. Not too shabby. Probably better than I could do! I will say, that is the nice thing about having two kiddos; one for each parent!

I've had insomnia this week. I can't explain it. I've never had trouble sleeping. So I've had enough and decided last night that I would take a sleeping pill. It worked. I slept until 11:30 today. How embarrassing! I wasn't going to admit it to anyone, but I have a big mouth. So now it is late and I can't sleep. I don't think I should take anything, I'll sleep until church is over:) Such a viscious cycle.

And for those of you that weren't sure if you could be my friend anymore because I wasn't a big fan of the book Twilight....I am reading Eclipse and loving it! I have redeemed myself. I've read about 300 pages today. So glad to be back in your good graces. Crazy Mama's incredulous look is still burning in my brain. Hahahahaha.

Well, at least I know I'm not the only one that can't sleep tonight! Ya, taking a sleeping pill this late is probably not a good idea. It is such a viscious cycle.. Well, at least you can read your book in peace tonight!
Ü Hope you get some sleep.

WHOOHOO for reading all night. bummer on the insomnia. I've been having that too lately. it's frankly killing me. and I've been sleeping until 11 am regularly! yeah, the kids get up and do their own thing while i sleep, and they don't even bug me. MOTHER OF THE YEAR HERE! as i hang my head in shame. and i don't have any sleeping pill to blame. it's all me.

Oh I'm glad you like the book! I just read Stephenie Meyer's latest book, "The Host" and HATED it! I was afraid to admit, but you gave me the courage.
Sorry you're not sleeping! Sometimes smelling lavender can help. And warm milk makes it's own Melatonin, the hormone that makes you sleep. I heat mine in a coffee mug for 3 minutes, then add 1tsp of vanilla and 1 tsp of sugar. Makes you feel all cozy and sleepy and no after effects!

Whoa~ 180 there lady! I didn't even begin the twilight series because the thought of vampires just didn't thrill me. I thought see..not everyone liked it..Jennifer didn't! Guess I gotta get going on it. I am hoping to have all 3 read before the new one comes out so I can do book club with you all. I am on the last Sophia Kinsella book you gave me. So I will start later this week!
I find my whole day is jacked up if I didn't get enough sleep the night before! Hope you get a handle on it soon!
