5)  My husband has gone from coming home early to working late.  The possibility of me having an hour or two to myself for the first time since probably Thanksgiving is sending me into a premature happy coma comparative to having 3 glasses of wine and an entire pack of caramel Hershey’s Kisses all at once.  All of which has zero fat and zero points on my WW plan.

4)  It is for their own good.  Today, them dreaming peacefully of spending time with Mommy is a million times better than the reality.  Mommy is not in the most “oh I love you so much and want to serve your every single whim because God gave you to me and I am oh so uber – mushy happy about it today” mood.  Read my previous post for verification of reasons for that mood.

3)  We spent a lot of money on their beds.  And I don’t think that they have logged enough hours to justify the expense just yet.  So, tonight, they will add an hour.  Do that once a month and by the age of 18, they should be good.  And then they can take them to college.

2)  I need to work.  And by work I mean surf the net, join some hops, meet some new bloggers, enter some giveaways, annoy my readers with my giveaways, learn more about the people that take time to come see me here, and try to see how I can always improve my blog.  Because the day I think I am all done is the day I truly am all done.  And I don’t think I am finished sharing the life of me just yet.  Lucky you.

And the number 1 reason why bedtime will be at 6:30pm tonight?!!?….

BECAUSE I CAN!!

So there!
