Am I crazy?

When did 7:30 on a Saturday morning begin to qualify for "sleeping in"????
Am I an 80 year old woman or what?

So I was going to take pics to let you know what the r-n-j household looks like at 7:30 on a Sat morn, but of course EVERY single battery I own needs to be recharged. So I'm just going to describe (b/c I'm also procrastinating doing a little work, thus the Sat. morning post, which I never do).

We have the best sunlight that comes thru our bathroom window in the morn. It's one of those bubble glass windows (for privacy, and that's a wonderful thing, as you know I have issues with curtains... maybe we should bubble glass all of our windows.. hummm) and the light get's all distorted coming thru. Like a prism. Corny I know, but it's a nice thing to wake-up to and stumble upon as I try to tiptoe on our crunchy carpet (to not wake up kj) to wash my face.

Apparently I'm unsuccessful on tiptoeing b/c without fail, I come back in the bedroom to KJ laying in "suffication mode" which is sleeping with my pillow over his head, to indicate that I did indeed wake him and he's not ready to be woke. ;-) That's okay, I know he won't say a word b/c that's how we operate, as I have walked into a kitchen full of last nite's dirty dishes (b/c he cooked, and it was wonderful, but he is NOT a dish man...) and I won't say a word. He knows I'm noisy in the morns, I know that when he cooks, it's still my duty to clean the kitchen. All's fair in the r-n-k household.

I'm sitting in the messiest office, that I had hoped to paint and begin organizing, but alais, as I mentally lay out what I need to do today, I don't think that there will be time. sigh. Today would have probaby been a wonderful paint the office day.

So quicky here's what I'm thinking today will consist of.
1) Finishing up some freelance work. ( I was NOT getting back on this computer after pulling an all-nighter Thurs nite)
2) Catching an aerobics class (previously mentioned all nighter, put morning gym work out in the back of my mind yesterday, so I did indeed skip and if you read about the King Cake, then you know that was a no-no)
3) Maybe rididng my bike (Mom gave me her's at Cmas and it's been to chilly for a ride. Did you hear that folks "TOO CHILLY IN FL" Ha!
4) Cooking black-eyed peas for Black History program at church today. (I really wanted to do the one's out the bag, that you have to soak all night, but A) I've never done those and though it seems easy, I hate to mess it up. B) Daddy didn't call me back with how to do the soak all nite ones (b/c he is a black-eyed pea master) C) the real reason- I'm lazy and last nite all I could do was watch my dvr'ed Grey's episode and fall asleep.
5) Going to the Black History Program at church, in which I fully expect to be reciting a poem to a room of adults, b.c. even though this if for the kids, we're a small church and the one man with all the kids (4 or 5) isn't going to be able to make it, and that's our "youth group". hehehe KJ was thinking of not coming, but I guilt triped him telling him that he didn't have to support my poetry reading, I'd just perform for the other 5 adults that would probably be there. ;-) I'll let you know if it worked...

Anywho, guess that's about it. Gotta get some work done now b/c aerobics starts at 9:30 and my only FL semi-friend, Mary is teaching and although she does a great workout, she sometimes needs someone to help her catch the beat. In comes roz, who, although I'm about to fall out dead after 5 min and I dance like a little ole woman (says my dad) or an uncreative video hootchie (says someone who will remain nameless), I can ALWAYS find the beat to Salt and Pepper's "Push IT" and any other 90s tune that Mary chooses to try to kill us to.

Happy Saturday peps! Happy Saturday!
