Catching some Z's

You know you've had a good time when you're ready for bed at 8 p.m. Having not gone to bed before midnight since last Friday, I knew it was time when I tucked my kids in, then myself. I made my husband come with me.

"Lights out," I mumbled, sucking air through my pillow.

He obliged.

Thankfully.

The next morning, he was up before 6 a.m, practically whistling and in such a good mood, I just had to follow him into the bathroom while he shaved.

"So that's why the kids are so chipper in the morning," he said, almost giddily.

Now you have to understand my husband. Giddiness is not a part of his emotional roster. So I knew the early bedtime had done him some good, too.

And I could see straight again!

Sleep...wonderful sleep! Yes. We will be in bed early tonight in anticipation of seeing you...and then sleeping more after the redeye. Love, Umbi

I don't sleep very well, so even being exhausted and going to bed early, usually doesn't help. Glad you two felt better. Cindi
