A Visit To The Mommy

Today started too darned early, especially after the late night we had watching the last two episodes of Star Trek: DS9. I think I finally fell asleep around 1am, and was awake well before the alarm went off at 7.30am. Bear got up to supervise the kids breakfasting and readying themselves to go home, and I followed shortly afterwards, hiding in the shadows to avoid the bright light my eyes and brain were just not ready for.

Bear left around 8.30am and I managed to brush my hair and make some breakfast, leaving the coffee until he got back over an hour later. Still didn’t make me feel any brighter, I’m really not a morning person. I’m not really an anytime person. I’m just as lethargic in the evening as I am in the morning, and if I sleep in late, bear with a sore head is a very apt description. Around 1pm I took myself off to the shower, so I was clean and presentable enough to visit his Mom this afternoon.

I haven’t showered since Wednesday. I know.. it’s gross, but I have little energy and zero motivation these days. It’s like I wake up and my brain says “You have 23 minutes of energy for today, use it wisely” and I never do. By 2pm I want to go back to bed, although I know I won’t sleep, despite almost falling asleep on my chair or the sofa. And if I do, I won’t sleep at night.

A visit to Bear’s Mom will be nice though, she’s quite a character and so funny, and the reason he’s not only glued to the Internet, but a massive Sports fan. It’s all her fault. 🙂 She’s also a great cook and you know every time you go there’ll be cake, as well as something homemade and delicious to eat, and on occasion a ton of chocolate or cookies, usually on birthdays, at Easter and Christmas, and during Carnival season… So round about now. 🙂

I have quiche planned for tonight, not sure that’s wise though, we’ll probably be so full from Mom’s it won’t be necessary. We shall see. Bear has a dinner planned for Thursday night, with his ex-colleagues, he’s put it on the calendar, but hasn’t said a word to me about it… I even mentioned doing fish on Thursday, and he said that sounded nice… Hmmm.! :]
