Alarming...
I rarely wake up with an alarm anymore. Jack is usually up by 7 or 7:30 a.m. and that's early enough for just about everything we need to get to. The other morning, my brother-in-law was graduating from Police Academy and we wanted to go. We needed to drive for a couple of hours to get to graduation so I needed to be up by 6:00 a.m. to get me and the kids ready. I DIDN'T SLEEP A WINK!! I know my alarm is going to go off, I just obsess constantly about the time. 2:36 a.m......3:04 a.m......3:17 a.m.........3:41 a.m. and so on. It's so annoying because I really need to be sleeping because I'll be getting up early. When I was waking up for school, I never had a problem sleeping all night long; I'm just out of practice. Next time I need to set my alarm, I'm going to have to do some serious Zen relaxation activities right before bed and visualize myself sleeping all night long. You are getting very sleeeeeepy......

Oh, I really hate that. Right now my kids take turns waking me up all through the night. "I'm scared." "I have to go to the bathroom." "I don't know why I woke up, so I'll wake mom up." "Waaaah." I want to sleep through the night.
Seriously. The night before the marathon I just stared at the celing all night waiting for that alarm... Isn't it maddening?
If only you could get your kids to wake up by 5:00 or 6:00 like mine....
