it's 11:36 pm - nai & her cousins are playing "school" in her room - giggling, laughing, and trying to be adults. the older nephews, matt & mel, playing ps3 .. quite intensely. i was able to get away for a little bit.
no matter how much i look forward to weekends, i never fully get the rest i need to re-start a workweek. a sample - since i got work yesterday (friday), I :
*attended my weekend class from 6 to 9pm
*stayed up with my nainai until midnight watching tinkerbell and reading books
*woke up early this morning to take my nephew matt to an ACT/SAT prep session
*shopped w/ love for outfits for his company's mystery murder dinner tomorrow night (it took all morning) he'll be a photographer & i'll be a flapper girl.. oh boy.
*came home, ate lunch - then nai & i left to cheer on my nephew Ozzie at his basketball game (go whitebear LAKERS! they won 45 to 25 - they have been undefeated all season thus far!)
*returned home - put my nai to bed for a nap while i enjoyed the beautiful warm winter day outside - shoveling the slush in our driveway for an hour - my arms and back are feeling that workout just about... now.
*cooked dinner (home-made burgers & fries!) for the kids
*cleaned..
*added two more kids to my daycare duties :-) (kyler & caroline)
.. and have been entertaining them with a movie, popcorn, chocolate pudding.. but they would rather play videogames online, play "school" or "house", run around the house screaming, eat candycane and other sweets, and insist that they are not tired.
.. and yes, it's only 11:42 pm. it's going to be a long night.
at least, i attempt to sleep in tomorrow morning :-)
so please do not call me until noon. thank you.
what i hope to dream about tonight:
good night world. signing out - suabyi.

Please listen to your little sister this one time: RELAX! You need to make sure you take a break for yourself in between these crazy times. Stop bustin' a MuChen. :)
