Back to school

Well the two little ones, who really aren't so little are back in school. It is so hard to get them going after they have had a week to sleep in. That i have to say is a perk of older kids. Well, i suppose i should clarify, sleeping in.
At the teen years, when i could "sleep in", that would have been 10 or maybe even 11. When spending one of my many weekends at Melon's house, she could sleep until 12 College age, again, 10 or so. Unless i had signed up for an early class, which i tended to do.
After getting married around 9:30 would be sleeping in on the weekends.
Baby age, sleeping in, HA!!! 5:30, 6 a.m. They were always early risers.
So now, at the ripe age of 7 and 10, Midget rises about 8 or 8:30. Monkey, on the vary rare occasion might sleep until 10, but usually 9. Which is nice.
I still get up about 7, to relish in the quiet. ah, the peace and quiet. It also gives the time to watch the shows i am too tired to stay awake and watch, or the shows they should not watch. :)
So that is our thrilling life right now, getting back to getting up. how may days until June 3???
Everyone cross your fingers and toes and anything else you can for good news on the job front. It would be heaven on earth to be in the same country as that wonderful hubby of mine!!!
