Proof Is In The Pudding

Last night, when I went to bed (after The Wheel) Jim decided to come as well. I knew right away this was not going to bode well for me. Normally when I head upstairs, Jim stays downstairs and falls asleep in front of the TV. He eventually comes up between 9:00 and 10:00. This works out perfectly because it gives me time to read and then fall asleep before he comes up and commences snoring. 

So after I tucked the boys in, I got in bed, and Jim's already there (I had to remind him to put on a Breathe Right strip...dumb butt). He isn't snoring yet but I can feel it coming. As I opened my app to read, it starts and not lightly either. I nudged and nudged and nudged and finally decided to illustrate what I've been dealing with so I recorded him. I got about 45 seconds of him sawing away the replayed it, which in turn, woke HIM up. He said, "That's not me." I said, "You're out of control. You need to roll over and reposition your head." He said, "I can't remove it from my shoulders!" I said, "I can probably take care of that for you." In the end, he rolled over, repositioned his head and that's pretty much the last time I heard him. Lucky for him. 

In other news, I started reading TKM yesterday and as I suspected, the kids seem to be enjoying it already. Of course there's always one or two kids who are assholes...it's just the nature of the beast. One kids said to me after we finished reading chapter 1, "How long is chapter 2?" Sighing I said, "I don't know...why don't you flip through the BOOK THAT'S IN YOUR HANDS, and count pages. But really, what does it matter?" I had another kid who, after we finished reading chapter 1 say, "Phew! That was long! Are all the chapters this long?" Yup...pretty much. Get used to it jerk and enjoy the story. Kids...can't live with them, pass the peanuts! (If you know Cheers, you know that quote.) 

Dinner tonight: I was going to make a Tex Mex Skillet but I'm not feeling it so instead I'm going to make spaghetti and a salad. Yummy. 

It's going to get above freezing today! And tomorrow, it's supposed to get into the 40s. Of course that means rain is moving in and I do not look forward to the sloppy mess that will be my backyard. Oh, and then next week we're getting air that's apparently coming from Siberia. It's going to be colder next week than it's been. Yikes.

Jim found a guy to come look at our deck and give us an estimate. He'll be here today at 4:00. I'm sure it's going to be an astronomical price. 

Okay, time to move on. Ooh, it's Thursday and tomorrow is Friday and that means a 4-day weekend for me! Woot. Later!

P.S. I'm sitting here searching for a pic to put on my blog and Maggie texts me with "What's the deal". It's 6:12! Give me a minute!!! So impatient!
