Hello,  testing, testing, 1, 2, 3, IS THIS THING ON?    Oh there, there you go.  I have days that I feel like my life starts this way. Like yesterday, I wake up to, "Mom, I'm hungry."  Takes me a second, (testing, testing) then I think, "Is it morning already?" OMG, I jump out of bed and realize I over slept and my daughter missed the bus.  And then look at the clock and see that I don't have a lot of time to get my son ready for school either.  So I jump into my supermom mode and pull clothes, find something for him to eat.  Who knows what that was but I did send yogurt for snack so that overrides everything, right?  Get him to the bus and then rush back to get my daughter ready for school. Now that is a super accomplishment in its self.  If you didn't know already, she has cerebral palsy.  Miranda will be 19 on the 22nd of this month.

 (Wow, 19 how it seems like just yesterday that I was 19 and carefree.  Going to work on just a few hours of sleep and still fueled by the alcohol from the night before. Well, that is a whole other story.)  But back to my girl.  Getting her ready is a workout. It just doesn't hit the problem areas.  If I could figure a way of getting her in her wheelchair and doing some sort of move to flatten my tummy I would be so thrilled.  I think I actually increase my tummy because I use that as a shelf to support her weight. Either way she loves all the pampering she gets. So off to school for her.

That was the first night of good sleep I have had in a long time.  And what happens this morning?  I wake up at 2:35.  WTF!  So I start getting sleepy again about 5:25am.  Just before I have to start my day all over again by doing my workout with my daughter and running to the bus.  SLEEP you really piss me off
Thinking, thinking, thinking.  Ok,  I remember a long, very long, time ago that my teacher told me to just write.  Write whatever came to mind and then sort it out later.  This is the rambling going on through my crazy brain.....
Guacamole, mmmmmm, I really want some.  Good thing my 6 year old helped me make some earlier.  Well, from that point  I got side tract with the thought of the guac in the fridge and had to go and put a glob on my plate and chow down.  I think we put too many onions in it.  Because my breath was kicking!!!!!  So this is now the next morning and I can still taste the onions. And that is even after brushing my teeth before bed! Wow, nobody try to kiss me right now.  UGH!
