I always get up pretty early, but it seems to not be enough time to:
Do some laundry
Go to the gym
Do some laundry
Have rousing discussions with Tbone about the "idiots" at the gym or on television
Wake my daughter
Play a little Bejeweled Blitz
Get breakfast
Make Coffee
Find outfits for myself and Boo Boo
Cuddle
Snuggle
Take a bath - play some more Bejewled Blitz in the tub
Make the bed
Brush the teeth and hair
Put on the makeup, don't want to scare anyone
PROD the frozen child Boo Boo La La AGAIN to "Eat already!" and "Are you dressed yet?" and now the popular "Have you got your backpack & lunch?"
Check on the laundry again
TRY to put things in the dishwaser - fail, it's clean
Get out the door with the cell phone and MY lunch....crap go back into the house for one or the other or BOTH...
I didn't tell you guys. It was during the dark ages when I was posting a blog about once a month - you know the last year or so?
I have to stop mentioning that, right?
A friend of ours works in Social Media Marketing and asked me on Facebook if Boo Boo could sit for some pictures to use in a new website redesign. They had asked him if he knew any cute little girls and OF COURSE Boo Boo came to mind. To be fair, he sees her everyday as his boys go to the same daycare.
So my dear baby got to have a very glamorous experience.
The let her wear PURPLE
She got hair and makeup!!
She got to see the results.
....and then back to normal in the parking lot.
And just a few weeks ago my friend sent me a message via Facebook once again.
The site was live...
And Panda - Stole the show. He is a Rockstar of keeping his chin up, what with that head injury and all....
I woke up just before 5am this morning...and I still didn't get to work until 9am.
Why?
Well first it was because I didn't want to open my laptop - I just lay in bed and dozed to old episodes of Full House. I missed the end of the one where "Uncle" Joey decides he wants to be called Joe because Phyllis Diller crashed his HBO Special dreams...did he stay a comedian?
Then at 6 am just as Sponge Bob started - I turned on the laptop and switched the channel to the morning news instead. Yes, I watch news and blog surf - can't you multi-task?
Don't You Love Me??
I realize that now it is getting ridiculously close to 7am. I get out of bed, make the bed, go to wake @IamBooBooLaLa and smell....
Yes, I am going to need that bath. So I switch the channel back to Sponge Bob.
It's The BEST DAY EVAHHHH!!!
At 7:28 am @IamBooBooLaLa announces "I HUNGRY!" and since she has had a little cold I decide to comply with her breakfast request - even though she can get breakfast at daycare - oh "And mama, Dora is coming on and I don't like her." so we surf over to Sprout.
Chirp!
I gather my lunch items in the fridge while I get breakfast and Viola - its now 7:45am and we should be out the door.
I get dressed, dry my hair, get @IamBooBooLaLa into her velour track suit that should be a memory, but its like 45 degrees and POURING RAIN outside. I throw on a little makeup so I don't scare anyone and we then head back downstairs to bundle up.
I am in the kitchen filling my lunch sack with my goodies when @IamBooBooLaLa walks in with the cardboard portion of the Tangled DVD and asks, "Where is the rest of this mama? I want to take it to J's house."
I comply and find the DVD, meaning I had to turn on the DVD player and fish it out, which turns on the television, then I have to turn them back off, and hand her the DVD. Why?
#IdonotknowIwastiredandrunninglatebythistime.
We get on our rainboots - coats - etc. and head for the car. It is COLD AND WET out there people I was not a happy girl.
Finally - Finally we make it to daycare. And you know what? Because I didn't rush her and complied with requests there were ZERO tears this morning.
