The Joy of Napping

I stopped napping when I was 4 years old, or so I assume anyway. When I had babies I was told over and over again, “nap when the baby naps”, HA, as if.

If I napped when the baby napped when would showers be taken?

 

 

On Sunday, I was overcome with heavy eye lids after a 6 mile run and since the kids were blissfully playing elsewhere in the house and hubby was watching football, I decided to close my eyes on the couch, for just a second.

75 minutes later I woke up feeling AWESOME!

Oh the joy of napping! I’ve missed you so!

However it was 6:40 and I was really AWAKE!

Off I went…the kids got showered, cleaned and put to bed. 2 loads of laundry, bathroom, floors, kitchen and bedrooms all got cleaned after 8pm! Maybe there’s something to this whole nap culture. Maybe I would be a lot more productive if I napped more. Maybe I should start scheduling naps into my days. But then again my schedule is pretty tight right now so something would have to go.

hmmmm, what should go?

My running? No way! Gotta get groceries so can’t toss that out. Blogging? yeah, no chance.

So I guess it’s gonna have to be showering. Yup that’s it. Instead of showering I’ll nap.

Boom!

I am brilliant.

I will be so rested…stinky….but rested!

Come on, naps for everyone! Who’s with me?
