I'm a day late on my day ten post but it was for a great reason! I usually post later in the day which usually good for me but not last night. Ali went down at seven, Kenzie went down at seven thirty, and I did not stay awake past eight thirty. I feel asleep on the couch so I got about ten hours of sleep, and I love sleep!
I do not know why but it seems to me, and most people that I talk too, that there is a very large problem with kids and grown up rules. Why does the child, who runs around like a madman from morning til night, gets to nap during the day when the adults, who can somehow wake up tired, do not get a nap?!? Also there are times where you are putting your kids down for a nap and they fight it the whole way and all you want to say to them is "I want you to take a nap so I can!" :) . I feel there should be built in nap time for adult life too, not just kindergarten, but I do not think I am gonna find many employers to go with me on that one. Yesterday felt this, more so than usual. By five I was ready to go to bed!
The other problem we run into is that EVERY week my wife and I talk about how we need to start going to bed earlier. We talk about how we both feel tired often and that one thing to help would be going to bed earlier. However, when the week roles around, we are staying up until eleven or midnight. Are we doing anything important or necessary, NOPE! We are sitting around watching bad b list horror movies, bad tv, or DVD sets of ER or Friends. Not a horrible way to spend an evening but not a great on for staying up so late when Tiffs work starts around six and mine starts at eight! We could go to bed early every single night and every single night it is to bed at eleven or twelve......
So that is why last night was so great, sleep, Sleep, SLEEP!!! I felt great this morning and the day went by so much better than when I get my five and 1/2 hours worth of sleep. So I think Tiff and I should go to bed at that time every night............. Yea right :)
