I woke up this morning at 4:19, wishing I could have slept the next 11 minutes I had left before my alarm. I got up, went to the bathroom - which is what woke me up in the first place and realized I did not charge my phone last night. I plugged in my phone and it said it was 5:23.
WHAT??!!
I checked the FF's phone and it said the same thing.
I literally ran into the kitchen and checked the clocks on the microwave and the stove.
<sigh> They all agreed with my phone. And it is now nearing 5:30. <sigh>
I woke J up and pleaded with him to get the kids ready for me, since I needed to leave SOON!
We figured out why - my FF had 77 things on the same circuit and blew it last night (while I was recording Charlie Brown's Christmas). And I fell asleep on the couch. When I looked at the clock in the bedroom, it didn't NOT make sense that it was that was that time.
I hate waking up in a panic like that. Usually when I do, it is 30 minutes after I went to bed and I SWEAR I have slept all night.
We were out the door by 6:05 am. I was pretty impressed with the flexibility of my muppets and how my FF just took over clothes and lunches and...got us out the door.
I am so glad, for once, that I am always awake by 5:30am.
I will be happy for this week to be over, to be home tonight to hug my FF and say thank you. Make sure you do the same.
Happy almost Friday!
Please join me as work to make sense of my life as a fire wife. This is his TRUE calling. He was a tremendous elementary school teacher, but this is definitely where he sees himself happy. This is my journey to acceptance and support for my husband's dream job come true. Real, sometimes raw and almost uncensored.
