What a week this is going to be! Dennis is out of town for the week, hanging out in jolly ol' England. (yes I'm jealous) Here I sit, exhausted, cranky and hormonal. He left yesterday and since the trains operate on a slower schedule on Sundays, I had to drive him to the airport. Yes, my very first Autobahn driving experience. Oh joy!! At least the boys were cooperative and were silent as little mice as mom prayed her way home.
Last night I was so exhausted when I went to bed. I must have slept HARD because I woke up around 3am bright-eyed and bushy tailed and couldnt get back to sleep.... well not until 5:40 that is... alarm goes off at 5:45. After getting the boys up and out of the house and on the bus, I came home to sleep on the couch. That didnt work either. I was flying off the couch every 5 mins thinking that I forgot to wake up and get the boys off to school this morning. Well, "flying"is a funny word to use about me waking up suddenly off the couch. It's best described as arms and legs flailing wildly trying to get this body to move up off the couch, usually resulting in me just rolling off the couch onto the floor. LOL Have you ever seen the Cosby show episode where Cliff (the dad) has a nightmare about all the men being pregnant? There's a part when it shows all of them getting up and down from the couch in hilarious ways. I think of that episode a lot these days. LOL
Ive been getting plenty of those extremely uncomfortable Braxton Hicks contractions today. I'm sure mostly because of my exhaustion and from two little boys who want to choose today, of all days, to test their boundries and see how close they can get to sending mommy to the looney bin. They can be a little scary sometimes though, the contractions, not the boys LOL. I can definitely see how some people could construe them as labor. Thankfully, I know they are not, no worries. I just only hope they are actually doing some work. If I have to be uncomfortable then they better be doing their job to make "the real thing" quicker when it does happen. LOL
Well I'm off to bed to *try* and get some rest tonight. It'd be real nice to actually have some energy to drive *gasp* to a baby store or something. LOL

Huh the insomnia must be contagious. I'll keep the upset stomach to myself though. How fast did you get up though? Don't be having that baby while Dennis is away!!
