Happy Tuesday!

Happy, Happy Tuesday! Really! I mean it!

If you glanced at the title of the post and thought, "Eh...her creativity is ebbing to an all-time low," or "Gee, Cath, isn't it a little early to be getting into the six-pack," you'd be misguided.

Today is merely THE BEST TUESDAY MORNING EVER!

The Governor slept ALL NIGHT!

After four consecutive evenings of high fever, stuffed sinuses, and general miserableness which required my commiserating participation, he slept through an entire night. Well, technically, he did fuss a bit around 1:30 and again at 5, but both episode resolved themselves without my intervention. I got out of bed, but he was quiet before I reached his room.

Three and a half hour stretches of sleep! Not 45 minutes...not an hour. 3 -1/2 hours! Winning the lottery would seem anti-climatic this morning.

To further boost my good mood, if it indeed could be boosted...The Senator decided yesterday that swimming lessons are fun! He's signed up for two weeks of classes and Sunday night he was adamantly against going.

I DON'T WANNA GO!

He went. He discovered there was a kid more frightened of the water than he was. Confidence soars as does the fun index. Today there will be no tears as Mom suggests he put on his swimsuit and get the *&@!@# out to the car.

No, I didn't swear.

But last night as I was trying to get some saline mist up The Governor's nose and he was trying NOT to get saline mist up his nose, I sprayed and sent salt water all over his face. I was so tired and frustrated I said, "Damn! I missed." In between crying and screaming, The Governor started repeating, "Damn, I missed," over and over again. I started laughing. Sure, I'll be in a bit of trouble with The VP today, but man, was that funny. Too bad The Governor didn't think so.

Time to go eat breakfast. By myself, because both boys are STILL SLEEPING! Bwah ha ha ha ha ha ha!
