Happy Monday! It was a very busy weekend, but I did manage to relax some…though I slept horribly!
Friday night, Eric and I had sloppy joes and watched a movie (a bad one
that he Netflixed…blow-em-up movies shouldn’t have “girlie” plots!)
and went to bed early, but I had a very bad night’s sleep.
Saturday, I read the newspaper, exercised and then ran some
errands. I got new glasses which look really cute, so I picked
them up. Then I spent the rest of the day cleaning and making food for
Eric’s birthday party. I watched the first half of the OSU game,
but missed most of the second half because of party preparations.
Apparently, though, I didn’t miss much since they basically fell apart
in the second half…oh well. They did win, but I’m glad I won’t
be at their practices this week!
The party was fun. The nieces were highly entertaining.
Holly was scared of me until I took my glasses off so she could see it
was just me. Then we played with them, opened gifts and had
supper. Everyone headed home about 8:30 (the leaving process
started about 8:00, but both girls had “putting-on-their-coat” fits
that elongated it!). Then we watched some Blue Collar comedy
stuff on tv before going to bed.
Sunday morning was church (I slept a little better Saturday
night). Our new music minister is a VERY good addition. I
think I’ll like working with him. We had an organizational
meeting after church, but I got home about 12:45 (which is very early
for those meetings!
).
We had leftovers for supper and then I relaxed a bit, worked on some
Christmas stuff, and then got into preparations for Small Group, which
was meeting at our house last night. Thankfully, everything was still
mostly clean from Saturday night, but I made a couple of snacks (which
was a good thing since the other couple who was supposed to bring
stuff…forgot completely!). But it was a good bible study on
God’s sovereignty and it was great fun to talk to everyone again.
We are crazy loud when we’re together! Anyway, we were in bed
about 10:30, but I didn’t fall asleep until over an hour later.
Hopefully tonight I’ll sleep better!
I, too,have no trouble sleeping these days. Maybe you should do like me and work really hard all day so you practically can’t make it to the bed before you fall asleep!! Really, I hope you get past these bad sleeping nights and get some good sleep.
Yeah, Shannah, post more pictures.
I totally understand with the bad sleeping! Some nights are okay but only about once in between a few nights of bad sleep. I’m not sure what’s causing it for me either.
I love to sleep, and I have no trouble doing so! I hope you can get through this rough spell, and return to restful nights!
I wish you’d post more pictures…like of the birthday party and such. Did you take any? Then we could see the new glasses, too.
^^ It seems to be a family thing! You and Michelle! ^^
Why aren’t you sleeping well?
I’d say in any typical week, I’m glad not to be in Ohio State football practices. I don’t think I’d enjoy them.
