Never a Better Time to Roll Back the Clocks

Caution: the following was written during extreme exhaustion. A point to this post is not guaranteed and statements may not be clear.
I have been blessed with some wonderful friends here in MT. A couple of them are real treasures. Last night my favorite MT treasure, S.S. came over to watch a movie. The movie was over at 11:15pm, but we visited until 3:30am.
Now, this might not seem late to some of you, but friends, my inner-clock wakes me at 5:30 every day. No alarm clock exists in my room. My eyes just like to pop open at 5:30 EVERY day.
This morning my eyes thankfully remained shut until 7am, when Isaac SHOOK me awake. He had me by the shoulders and literally shook me awake in excitement because Madagascar is coming out on video Tuesday.
I did not strangle him. BUT since then he has been like the little dog on an invisible trampoline, and was 'refueled' when he then found out that on Tuesday, not only is Madagascar coming out, but so is Revenge of the Syth.
I am painfully tired. My face hurts from the exhaustion. To rub my nose in exhaustion, David (who was up just as late as I), is still asleep. Would you wake him if you were me?
So now the inevitable guilt that a mom always has set in. I barked at Isaac enough that his invisible trampoline was ripped out from under him. I have so, so much to do today (I started to list, but that just causes anxiety. Let's just say that I need to 'winterize' my house). I need to recover from this quickly. I'm allergic to coffee, otherwise I might be tempted to take on that bad habit just to I don't ruin my children's self esteem in one foul swoop.
Pull it together woman!
Check on us later today. Our safety may depend on it.

Greetings Jess, you have a pretty cool blog here. I was searching for work from home in the uk. I just started my home business and you can see it at this link - work from home in the uk. Your post title caught my eye - Never a Better Time to Roll Back the Clocks. I'm just looking for tips on how to be a better mentor. I know that’s not what you’re going on about in this post but I am trying to expand my vocabulary phrases so I can talk to many different personalities. I mean I have to talk to a lot of people and I need to be able to connect with everyone.

Anyways Jess, this helped. Keep it up, I'll be back.

Never a Better Time to Roll Back the Clocks... I've enjoyed reading your blog. I was searching for work from home directory sites. I have a home based business and I wanted some ideas and tips. I also have a blog, it is www.adminsupervisor.blogspot.com it’s new and it’s getting better all the time. Have a look if you want, but I'm moving house and have not posted in a while. I'll get back to it soon.

My other site is a work from home directory site. I recently decided to build my own income and I thought I searching for tips would help me become a better mentor.

Keep up the great work Jess, I'll be back soon.
