My top reason for loving summer and having a job that I have summers off? Sleep.
I remember being 4 or 5 and not sleeping and it amazes me that most people can go to bed, close their eyes and just ..sleep.
I am laying in bed thinking of how to save the world, get my laundry done, Did I load the dishwasher.. uh oh, better get up and look, I need a vacation..mm, where would I go? I wonder if it's going to rain? Did we lock the pool ladder? Did I close my car windows? Is everyone okay? What is that stupid cat doing? Did i put that payment in the mail? Better get up and check.. it is a non stop chaos soup in my brain.
But summer... at least I can toss and turn and know I can sleep in..every flipping day! Pure bliss.
I realized this morning that our coffee pot goes off after 2 hours and I have had to get up and turn it back on all week.. I miss the Today show... I don't care.. I stayed up late reading my book (Jen Lancaster is my new favorite author right now.. too funny!) and didn't have to worry about when I would fall asleep.. it is soo great!
And I am already thinking.. school starts in August, my sleep will again be jacked up. I will return to the tossing and turning of Sunday nights (Always the worst) and the thinking of Saturday mornings.
There is not much better than rolling over at 8:00 and just laying there..
until I think.. is my laundry done?
