Sleep

My night…a timeline:

9:00 – climb into bed and pretend to be asleep so Madeline will sleep
9:10 – actually fall asleep
9:20 – wake up with cat on face. Have sneezing fit.
9:30 – get up and go downstairs for lemonade and Kleenex
9:35-10:30 – play mindlessly on computer
10:30-3:00 – sleep
3:30 – become aware Madeline is awake and moaning
3:45 – sleep fitfully until Madeline indicates a bad tummy ache. Ascertain that she does not have gas and isn’t in imminent danger of throwing up.
3:45-4:00 – lie awake listening to daughter fall back asleep.
4:00 – conclude that being awake is not going to stop anytime soon.
4:15 – get up, throw on bathrobe
4:20 – measure balcony (20 feet x 9 feet) and table (5 ft x 3 ft)
4:30 – 5:00 – continue online hunt for decent gazebo - some success but no dimensions provided
5:15 – climb back in bed
5:20 – start to get sleepy
5:25 – alarm goes off…hit snooze
6:00 – get up for shower and start day.
