Sleep and Boy brain...

I

*Disclaimer: I am still under the influence of heavy narcotics so if this post tends to ramble, please consider yourselves warned.

Thank you guys for your well wishes! I am still sick. Thankfully, not as sick as I was due to the help of antibiotics and the inhaler, but there have been a few...uh em ...side effects that I was not expecting.

The first one, has been my dire need for sleep. I have seriously not slept this much since I was a teenager. My day has consisted of getting up, taking Cub to school ( which by the way he thinks is just friggin awesome, because that means no school bus for him) and promptly coming back home ,crawling into bed and going back to sleep. Until NOON. Then I get up, forage for something of some sort of nutritional value, get re-dressed and think about all of the things I could be doing, considering I have the second wave of the invasion descending upon my house starting on Sunday. (/slaps head)

The mere thought of anything housework related exhausts me, so I do nothing, but think about it. By then its time to pick Cub up from school. In order to actually find a spot to park, I have to be at his school almost 45 minutes before they are dismissed, because every stay at home parent with nothing else to do is there, waiting. (this is another blog post for later- trust me it NEEDS it's own)

*SNAP*

Sorry.

This leads me to my second side effect. I have literally lost brain power. The inmates are running the asylum, a few screws loose, suffering from boy brain....aaaahhhh yes....that's it! I find myself distracted by any and everything. My ability to multi task is gone. 

Yes, yes,, it is true!! I have Boy brain! Oh you don't believe me? Well, here is a little bit about how my afternoon went yesterday.

I decided to throw in a load of laundry, gathered it, took it downstairs, decided to throw in the shirt I was wearing, took off shirt, threw clothes in washer, started washer, looked for new t-shirt. Grabbed new t-shirt from top of washer, turned around because the cat meowed, walked over to the cat food, fed cat. Walked upstairs, put shirt on the chair in the kitchen, grabbed a glass of water, went down the hall because I heard the email 'boing', checked the email...... for almost 1/2 an hour I paraded around my house with no shirt on! Yes, yes indeed all the damn curtains were open.

This is why I have decided that it is not safe for me to operate any sort of appliance/vehicle for longer than 10 minutes and I will remain at home for the rest of this week until the fog clears, until my wonderful, multitasking girly brain returns home....

Oh please...please, please...come back soon...
