A little cat nap....
Ever feel like that's what you need? Just a little cat nap to get yourself all refreshed and your batteries recharged?
I don't know why, but just this week I have been starting to feel a bit sleepy around midday. Unfortunately, I've got absolutely no time to doze off for a few minutes (I can't nap anyway--it totally messes up my sleep pattern). In the morning, I get everyone's breakfast made, then tidy up the house a bit. I then teach grammar and vocabulary acquisition until noon. I make lunch for the students and my husband. Teach reading, writing, pronunciation, TOEFL and SAT prep classes...then we go on an outdoor activity, and then I come home and cook supper. I also help Hubby with stuff around the farm too if he needs me.
Here's a pic of the girls (Fred and George) taking a cat nap. See how they're sprawled across the quilt my MIL made Hubby and me? *sigh* Ah.....the life of a cat :)

About the Blog Author
City girl moves to the country, falls in love, and marries a farmer. She tries to incorporate her city ways with her new country lifestyle and blogs to keep in touch with friends, family & students who live far, far away :) Can this city girl go country? Watch as she learns all sorts of exciting things about life on the farm and in a small rural community. *UPDATE* We are now parents! Our baby girl was born on Nov. 11, 2008 (at 28 weeks gestation- 12 weeks premature, but she's quite the trooper)!!!

I know what you mean. Sometimes I feel like I need a good sleep-in!
the school I work for lets me take 1 hour breaks at noon hourfor my meal. I secretly walk to my flat and sleep for a bit and have my meal and walk back to work! Sometimes Yuka makes my bento box so I don't come home. Think she's trying to tell me something? Don't sleep in the middle of the day perhaps?
