A day to lollygag

Today is the last day of the marking period at Gabby's school and is therefore a teacher in service day. So Gabby doesn't have school. Braly doesn't have school on Fridays and Morgan well, she's 2 so she doesn't have school either. haha Instead of getting up early to exercise like I've been doing for the last few weeks, I decided to sleep in. This choice came easier than I had hoped since I'm really trying to make healthy choices for a lifetime. But earlier this week Morgan started acting funny, she was waking up at 4:30 then 4:00 then 3:00. I would get her all tucked in & settled down & then she'd be up what seemed like 5 minutes later. Arg...just as I would start to drift off I'd be woken up again. Doesn't make for a good night's sleep. Then when I finally got her sleeping for longer than a few minutes I listened to her & realized that she was all stuffed up & was probably having a hard time breathing so she couldn't relax enough to fall asleep. So I fumbled around in the dark to find her meds & get the machine that is loud to begin with but at 3:50am seems like an airplane in your room. I gave her a breathing treatment while she slept so there was no fighting, well not from her anyway, I had to fight to stay awake long enough to make sure all the meds were gone. BTW, her meds are in liquid form and are put into a little cup that is hooked up to the nebulizer and the nebulizer turns the liquid meds into a vapor for her to breathe & get down into her lungs. I must say the breathing treatment was well worth my time beacause then she slept until a little after 7am. Last night I gave her some Benedryl for the runny nose (its the only stuff that seems to work for her & the plus is that it makes her a little drowsy). With her comfortable & able to breathe nicely, she slept the entire night without so much as a fuss. So I slept great, feel refreshed today & was able to enjoy breakfast with Morgan, get the dished done & the kitchen cleaned up & then catch up on some computer time. Now I'm off to burn some calories. Just because I slept in doesn't mean I have to skip it today. That's the beauty in the lollygag kind of day. And the sun is shining & we seem to be having a heatwave for Jan...temps are between 20 and 30 degrees so it might just be a good day to sled down our mini hill before lunch. Time for some fun!
