Yep. It’s back.
Actually, I needed a What Day is it Anyway? yesterday.
I made such a bonehead move.
On Tuesday, I had to get up at 5am to start my son Alex’s tube feeding so I could make it out the door for a dentist appointment by 10.
Yesterday, I forgot to turn off the alarm, so it rang again at 5.
And I trusted it.
I dragged myself into a sitting position, put on my robe and slippers, and trudged down the stairs to get Alex’s feed started.
It was only when I was pulling the containers of formula out of the case when I thought …
What am I doing?
Am I going somewhere today? Is Alex?
Noooo!
So I put the formula back and trudged back up the stairs.
On my way back to bed, I checked on Alex. He woke up.
“What time is it?” he asked in sign language.
“It’s 5:00,” I replied.
“What are you doing?”
“I don’t know,” I said with a shake of my head. “Go back to sleep. I’ll explain later.”
I trudged back to my room, took off my robe and slippers, and went back to bed.
When I told Alex what happened yesterday, he laughed and laughed.
Bonehead Mom.
