Last night was the Missionettes sleepover at church. The girls that attend are 1st grade thru 7th grade (I think). It is quite an experience. Very little sleeping is involved at a 'sleepover' and this was no exception. Usually I can manage ok since I have discovered the air mattress which is a 'god-send' on a cement floor and I am a night owl. I will feel the lack of sleep the next day but I can stay up with the best of them the night of.
I team teach with another gal in the 3-5th grade class and this is historically the largest group. This year was pretty calm, unlike years past. They like to stay up and watch a movie and do hair, nails, read magazines and snack. I think they were all out by 1:30. Not too bad. My only problem with this is that today I can hardly keep my eyes open. I almost fell asleep on the way home. Coffee!!! Where is my coffee??? Actually, I don't think it would do much good in this case.
When I got home my awesome hubby was cleaning the questionable 'funk' smell out of the fridge for us and suggested that I take a nap. What a great guy. He even took the boys to town and got a few groceries as well. I am still tired but feeling much better than before. I love it when he's thoughtful.
I say all this to make the point and remind myself that what happens in my life is defininately affected positively or negatively determined by my attitude. I am still catching up from our 2 week trip and going to a sleep over was not my idea of a great 'Friday night' but ...attitude check. And then you do what you gotta do and make the best of it. One day at a time, one thing at a time.
