Trying to learn.

As some of you may know, I am not a morning person. And when I mean not a morning person, I mean, 8:30 iS WAY early to me, I don't have a bra on until at least 10:30, and I usually end up brushing my teeth after I eat lunch. I know. I'm pathetic. But I love to just hang around the house in the mornings! Preschool about kills me when I have to drive and be ready by 8:35!!! I have a good friend (Bonnie) that actually wakes up and get ready before her kids are up, so she is always on top of her game. That way (and she is so smart) she will be ready for anyone that comes to the door or if she has to run anywhere quick. I have tried to take her example and do that, but frankly, it doesn't work. Anyway, not the point.

Point is this. In recent weeks, people have been coming to my door in the morning (before 11:00 AM) and Makenna has so graciously answered the door before I can yank her into the kitchen and tell her not to answer it, or turn the TV off so they think that we aren't home. I love that people come to the door and give me money (HOA dues), but not when I am hagged out. I usually have to answer the door, covering my chest up "secretly" (TMI?!), and acting like it doesn't bug me that my daughter is dancing around in her panties, that Gavin has milk stained pajamas on, and I have a zit the size of Jupiter in between my eyes at 11:30 AM. The other day, some people stopped by to look at something and I was still braless at 2:00 in the AFTERNOON! Granted, it was a Saturday and I had been somewhat cleaning, but still... embarrassing. BUT! I still haven't learned. And probably never will. Although, for the past two days, I haven't fallen back asleep on the couch after I (Brent) get the kids breakfast, so that is something! Maybe by April, I will be dressed and ready to go by 10:00! And if not... don't come to my door please! And for all of you that are ready before your kids, kuddos to you!
