2 Hours and 51 Minutes

that is how much sleep I got last night. Oh I feel awful, not as bad as it could be, but pretty bad. After I finished scrubbing away at the house last night I finally stopped and just as I laid down for just a moment of peace Lee and Jackson walked in. I was so glad to see them but I wish i could've taken a nap. Lee stopped by Kelley's while in Niceville and picked up the steaks and potatoes for me. I threw the potatoes in the oven and put his filets in the Dale's sauce. I am not a huge Dale's fan and especially not for filets but oh well. It's his steak.

While I'm in the kitchen doing this Lee is outside attempting to fix one of the sprinkler heads that broke. As I've said before and he'll admit, the is not the best at fixing things. He's gotten better over time but it's always an ordeal. He'll get really frustrated and snappy. I'm sure if I was doing what he was doing then I'd be the same way. But it's not fun for me. I was cooking and making the filling for the potatoes and I even started the grill. Oh and that was after I attempted to clean the grill rack. That was one of the most disgusting thing I've ever cleaned. It was sticky feeling and I had black goo all over me. I have no idea when the last time it was that it had been cleaned. I even put the steaks on the grill, which made me nervous because I don't think I've ever cooked filet and I didn't want to burn all the steaks.

Lee came in and had grass all over him and had finally finished outside and had fixed 2 of the sprinkler heads. I was a tad frustrated (but held it in) b/c he had gotten grass all over the kitchen floor after I had spent so much time scrubbing the floors and they got dirty again. So I pulled out the vacuum cleaner and did it again. I couldn't help it. When you try so hard you hate for things to be a mess again.

It was almost 9 when we finally ate. Jackson had passed out in the bed already and didn't get a chance to eat the steaks with us. I felt bad because he loves steak. Kenzie was lying on the couch and wanted to sleep in the den but Lee went in to lie down w/ Jackson and he passed slap out. So I watched some TV in the den and did my Sudoku for a bit. Don't ask me why but I moved Jackson in the den and woke up Lee (for conversational reasons only of course). We ended up talking about this and that and the kids and when they were younger and just sweet things.

We went into the kitchen to get something to drink and he had me cut him a piece of cake and I ended up cutting me one too. It was a little before 2. While we ate the cake we were talking and stuff and he went back to lie down. I went out to the car to get my XM radio/MP3 player to listen to while sleeping. I stayed outside for a few extra minutes. When i walked back in Jackson was screaming bloody murder. Lee had moved him back to our room but he wanted his mama. I went to go pee with him attached to my hip.

We lie down and he just doesn't want to go right back to sleep. Before I know it it is 3:57. I then was awakened at 6:51 this morning. Not a fun feeling. I had already decided to make waffles this morning and when I was up last night I got everything out and ready to do so. I couldn't help it, I was wired at that point.

So now I'm up and at this point it 9:45. I made waffles, cleaned them up, I unloaded the dishwasher and put the dishes from last night up. I'm tired. I can barely keep my eyes open. I'm going to see if I can brorower Kenzie's sleepingbag she used last night so i can curl up on the couch.
