Why Do They Call It "Night Owl"

Ever since I can remember, I love doing things at night. The quiet, the peace, the comfort of being up all by myself. I just love it.

That is probably one of the reasons why I am glad require little sleep. I can go on for days and days on 4 hours of sleep a day. I do need to sleep for 8 hours every 3 or 4 weeks, but that's about it.

Some days, I am resolved to get to bed early, meaning before 2 AM. But here I am again, at 215, still awake, and have no wish to sleep. I could go to my favorite lounging couch and read, but that wouldn't help me with my goal to sleep early.

I still have 4 CDs left to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I can't believe this is the last book. I also wish Jim Dale read other books than HP series. There are a lot of things I could be doing right now. There's laundry. I have learned to accept that laundry will never be done, so why not just do it when I can, and not lost a lot of energy over it?

I could bake and prepare our dinner tomorrow, hunt for a perfect salad to make for lunch, or make a shopping list...but it seems like work to do all that when I have all these quiet.

I was almost tempted to sign up with a hosting service and have my very own dot com. However, that also takes efforts. I am hit with the lazies. So, I am playing around an idea of joining Weight Watchers. I want to start losing weight but running and jogging is out of the question while still breastfeeding.

Here's my pictures before pregnancies, and after 5 children (6 pregnancies).
I really have no wish to be 85 pounds again. A hundred would do nicely, thank you! I don't have much faith in dieting. I only eat when I can remember. However, each time I am pregnant, I eat like food is going out of style. I gain an average of 45 pounds each time, and I don't always lost the last 20 pounds.

When I was slim and tiny, I thought it was tough to gain weight. But now that I am fat, I think it's just as hard to lose weight. Harder even because I'll have to work that much harder to make sure I don't sag too badly.

Would I trade my children to keep my sexy bod? Nope. I do want to be within whispering distance to my "normal" size though. So, I have no idea how long it will take, but Weight Watchers, here I come. (I think.)
