You can sleep when you're dead, right?

Playing with my new flash tonight.  I  still have NO idea how to use it.  I need uncle B to plan a trip home from Hawaii to teach me!  But I do love that I can get pics of H's eyes open & smiling, without the crazy reaction.

Whewwww.  It has been a long 24 hours.

Around 9pm last night I put Hardin down.  Around midnight last night he decided to stay down.  I don't know what was up with the little super sleeper, but he wasn't having anything to do with the zzzzzs last night. 

I had already told myself I wasn't going to sleep until I finished the jon-jon I started Saturday night.  It's a lot harder when you are getting up every 20-30 min.  I finished it up around 12:15, and I must say, it's pretty stinkin cute.  I wanted a patriotic one for Memorial Day and the 4th, and wanted it to be really country so I opted for the applique instead of embroidery.  I won't do that again.  I don't have applique software, so I did it manually.  Pain.  Sad part is, I like the side with the simple H much better than the blue side with the impossibly hard lower case h.  That blue side will probably never see the light of day. 

I hit the ground running before the crack of dawn, making 6 dozen chocolate covered strawberries for an awards banquet.  I should have never done that three years ago... now they want me to do it every year!  Mom couldn't be here until about 1, so H man went to the awards banquet with me, and everyone just ate him up.

Brought the boy back here for the trade off, went to work, and started wishing I had a 5pm closing to get me out of boot camp.  I walked in.  Looked at the board with the outline for today.  Immediately started diagnosing myself with a multitude of deadly infectious diseases that would prevent my participation.  The words run one mile, 25 box jumps, 50 squats, 25 push-ups, run one mile, 25 box jumps, 50 squats, 25 push-ups, run one mile, did NOT look like anything I wanted a part of.  I did it though, except the second two miles, I only did 1/2 miles.  Notice I said "did" not "ran."  That was enough.

Made it back here just in time for H to wake up at 7:30.  Put him down at 9, and now mama's about to hit the hay.  If that's how the over achievers of our society live...  I don't want any part of that either.  Tomorrow I'm going to work, a few minutes late as usual, and coming home to snuggle with my baby, my birthday boy and my DVR.
