M had a fantastic idea. I knew there was a reason I married her ;-) She definitely is the smarts in the family!!
We close all the doors in our apartment, erect a barrier to cover the kitchen entrance (which is an open hole) and leave the bedroom door open. That way the boy can hog the couch, mosy around as they will and maybe, just maybe we will get some sleep!
guess what! I got about 6 hours! M. got about the same I would think (though as of right this second she is still sleeping!).
So I got up at 430am instead of my usual 530am. No big deal. The boys were already bugging me anyway. I did my usual routine of checking email, working on any imaginable sports pool that I play each year, fed them, took them for a walkies and I even got to see the West Wing episode from 2 weeks ago!!!!
Now I am here at work - with Robbie, who after being all giddy to check out the new digs, is sleeping again!
So far this experience is not as bad as I thought it would be. Knowing how Robbie is when his parents aren't around I truly thought it would be more of a nightmare. But then - we still have
39 days, 15 hours and 47 minutes to go!!!
Good morning :-)
