What a Monday. Had trouble sleeping last night. Then got up at 6 with The Governor. No chance to go back to bed because The Senator had swimming lessons at 8:30. 8:30 a.m. is about two full hours earlier than his normal waking time. The two of us were trying valiantly to out-grouch each other.
After swimming lessons we headed to the pediatrician because The Gov had been sticking his fingers in his ears all weekend. Good news! No ear infection. $20 to see the doctor for 5 minutes to find out all's clear. I would have paid $50. I never mind doling out money to hear the good news.
On the ride home from the doctor's office, The Gov fell asleep in the car. He had a 40 minute nap which he refused to continue once we got home. This was an extra bummer because The Senator actually took a nap and so the opportunity for me to catch a few zzzzs was there...right beyond my fingertips.
Ah well. The babysitter should be here in an hour. The VP and I are going to meet up for dinner. Maybe we can get a dim booth in the back of a quiet restaurant. I could put my head down for just a few minutes....maybe until dessert arrives.
