Word of the day….

You know what neep is? It's not a nap and it's not sleeping it's that in-between where you get to neep for 3 or so hours instead of napping for an hour and sleeping for 6. That's our word of the day. I’m taking one of those this afternoon. I am so tired. I don’t know if it’s a family trait or what but everyone in my family experiences it. About every 6-8 months we go though a week or two of no sleeping. We’ll sleep maybe a couple of hours at night but that’s all and after a week of that a person is so dead tired they can’t even think straight. Well I’m at that point. I am tired. To wake up this morning I went for a jog. Nothing far, just about 1/3 of a mile, rest and then 1/3 back but I woke up, especially since it’s –21* out there.

After breakfast today we are going to go and visit great grandma and grandpa and then go and see the kids. Nope, not the people kind of kids, the goat kind of kids. Mark and Isaac have 40 or so new kids so I’m taking my kids to see their kids. I’ll share pictures with you when we are done. We are also going to finish up the Valentine’s gift today with the pictures. I’ll share them too when all done.

So for now, two kids are up watching a movie, one is sleeping and one more to come about 9:30. My “kid” when to work this morning. I still can’t imagine him turning 18 soon. 18, WOW!!! Time flies by people, enjoy your little ones because they really do grow up fast.

Have a great weekend my friends. Take care and God Bless!!!
