Frustrated Friday

In the words of Charlie Brown...ARGGH!!! Last night I forgot to turn off my automatic alarm clock and the alarm went off at 5:45 and then again at 6:00 (dual alarms, yay!) - even though my kids don't have school today and I didn't have to get up! Have I ever mentioned that I am NOT a morning person? Yeah, I'm not. Oh and this is after a long night of intermittent snoring by my dear, dear hubby (sorry, Geoff). So, Friday morning not off to a good start. In keeping with yesterday's Thankful Thursday perspective I decided to look on the bright side and realized I have some TV shows DVRed that I haven't had a chance to watch. Perfect! All this extra time can be used for that. Yay! NOT! Apparently, when the housekeeper was here yesterday she did something and now all I have is sound and large green and purple snowy stripes on my TV screen. OK, OK, I should be thankful that I have a housekeeper and a DVR. And most of the time I am. But right now neither one is doing me much good! So, Frustrated Friday it is. ARGGH!!

Pam....I know you are not a morning person so you must not have been too happy this morning. Did you try going back to sleep? You're so funny....enjoy the rest of the day and the weekend. Make sure you turn that alarm clock off tomorrow!

Celine - Thanks for the encouragement. The day is improving, somehow my daughter was able to get the TV to work. I suppose it takes a 14 year old to understand technology.

Colleen! - Hi. Usually falling back to sleep is NEVER a problem for me. Today...no such luck!
Which only added to my frustration. And you bet I turned that foolish alarm clock off. Now I just have to remember to reset it after spring break!

HI Pam, I am LOVING the new blog layout, I have been day dreaming about a layout like this... With tabs. About the contest, you aren't a new follower since the contest but since you are super new, I'll give you an entry. Happy Easter.

I have the same sleep problems on weekends too...only I don't need help from an alarm clock! My eyeballs automatically pop open at 5:00 a.m monday-Sunday! I've forgotten what it's like to sleep in. ACK!

Pam said...

Frantic Mommy - That is terrible. I love to sleep in on weekends. It's one of the simple joys of life.
