‘Sup dawg?
No.
No. No. No.
I’m just watching American Idol right now, and Randy Jackson has that effect on me. Plus, I’m tired.
No.
I’m EXHAUSTED.
The monkeys and I went to the country today to watch it’sgrandma ride her horse Whisper.
LONG DAY.
At one point, I could hardly keep my eyes open — I was sneaking in 2-SECOND naps. I swear. I don’t even know how I’m writing this. And, I still have Valentine’s Day cards to prepare for Monkey’s class tomorrow. Oy.
Huh? Ahem. S’up Dawg! Wha? Who won? Oh. OH! Eek. Don’t know what happened there. Must have dosed off. Am awake now. Awake. Always a-fricken-wake. I need sleep. I mean real sleep. Like, in-a-hotel sleep. Because I can’t sleep with this Rascal waking up in hysterics at all hours.
It’s just too much.
Also too much was dinner at Fresh — my fave vegetarian restaurant in the city. WHICH I can now mention by name on my blog because the WAITER this eve WAS FAB. Love love love. Why was it too much, you ask? Try because (AMONG OTHER THINGS) I had to leave the table with hummus-covered flailing Rascal only to have him writhe in hysterics ON HIS BACK…, ON THE FLOOR, in the front of the restaurant. (I’m waiting for them to send me my Mother of the Year award….)
I’m okay. Really. I’m okay.
So, for now, I give you pictures of the day. To speak more than words I simply don’t have today. Sleep is taking over and…need… I… to make… cards… Tine .. Valen……
Gorj…. I need this. Need to get out of the city as often as I can. Just to breathe….
He loves horses….
Monkey and it’sgrandma gave Whisper a nice hot bath…. He LOVED it. So did she….
Whisper does the most bizarre tongue thing. It’s hilarious. See it? The tongue? He’s constantly got his tongue sticking out. He’s loves his tongue. Loves his bath. Loves his work. Loves his stall. He’s one happy, lucky horse. I love him.
….Besides, Gorgeouses? You know, I’m still totally hungover from yesterday’s cheat day….
Love!

go to bed. we don’t need updates on how Rascal is keeping you up…if you have the time to blog, that means you could be sleeping. go to sleep.

Renee — this blogging is one of the things that keeps me going right now, makes me more than “mama”. It’s a bit of a necessity right now…. As is watching American Idol after a long day of struggling with an extremely defiant toddler (and his sister)….

I hope you got more sleep last night… Can’t Josh-O takes the kids out like saturday morning or something and let you SLEEP-IN!!!! How great would that be?!

I know I’ve said it before, but your mom’s horse is beautiful. One of mine does the tongue thing after he’s finished drinking. Just one of their goofy little traits.

Hope you’ve got some sleep by now!! Whisper is beautiful but the tongue thing is a little freaky.
Haley-O said, February 12th, 2009 at 5:01 pm
Whisper’s tongue thing’s actually really cute. I love it. It gives him character. My mom’s just happy he doesn’t do that at shows!

What a beautiful horse. Your mom’s adorable, too! Get some sleep if you can. Poor thing!
Rhonda said, February 12th, 2009 at 5:24 pm
That’s so hard when they don’t sleep. Hang in there. I love the horse! Love that Monkey’s bathing the big guy. So cute!

Is it ok if I laughed a little when you said Rascal was lying on his back on the floor in the front of the restaurant? Is it okay if I laughed a lot!!!!!! Poor you!
Gorgeous horse. It’sgrandma always amazes me, how young she looks.
