1. YEEESSSSSSSSSSS!
The kids go back to school tomorrow. Yeah, I'll have to get up a little earlier, but at least they won't be here all day trashing my house while their father watches.

5. Third and Fifth
My fifth grader is up before me just about every day. The third grader on the other hand, seems to be a nocturnal creature.

8. I'm nocturnal too...
I force myself to bed at 1 or 2 so that I can get some sleep before going to work. My husband is beyond nocturnal.

22. That's right.
I'll be taking care of 32 of them so they aren't at home trashing the place up.

Winter break is not long enough. :(

On the plus side, we'll be busy enough that nobody will have time for any trashing until they get home.:)

2. Yep. I'm going to be cryin' on the way to work.
This is going to be especially bad for me this week because I finally committed myself to changing professions (again). No more glorified prison duty for me, ma!

11. Yeah, it sucks.
I gotta turn in a paper I should have had in 3 weeks ago. And something else I haven't even started yet. But he doesn't take off for having stuff late so that's good.

29. Ugh, I know!
I'm thinking, I might just try and stay up and not even go to sleep. I might feel better just drinking a bunch of coke and staying up till 6 am then leaving, as opposed to trying to force myself to fall asleep, rolling around in bed in total misery, only to be woken up right when I'm finally sleeping. :(

27. I feel ya.
I was supposed to be done already. But I'm not. Which actually gives me more time before I have to start paying off loans. So maybe it's not such a bad thing.

34. Me too----nnooooooooo!!!!!!!
God, this time flew. My girls are used to staying up til they drop and it's gonna be rough waking up tomorrow. And getting them (and me) to bed at a decent hour. I have to be at work at 7:00. oh man, that hurts thinking about it. But, on the bright side, I get my cast off tomorrow, so that's one good thing I'm looking forward to.
