Every year when I’m thinking about New Year resolutions I’d like to set, one that always crosses my mind is…. Should wake up early every day (talking before 8 o’clock here folks) to make the most of my days *especially on those days that I don’t even bother to set the alarm clock.
Well, here we are 8 days into the 2012 and it turns out I’ve kept this resolution every day, guess I should just say that it was my New Year’s resolution all along, but we all know that’s a lie. Dexter is the reason Kyle and I haven’t slept more than 3 consecutive hours and he’s the reason I’m up every morning at 6 AM (6:30 at the latest on Friday)!!!
So, this morning when I woke up at 7:14 I was shocked!!! Then I fought through the morning grogginess and remembered that the last time I had taken Dexter out was a little before 2 and I hadn’t heard him nor had I heard Kyle get up to take him outside since then. So, I did what any normal person would do…sat up and nudged Kyle… "Hey, hey, Kyle….wake up! When did you wake up and take Dexter out last night? I didn’t even hear you.” When Kyle let me know that he hadn’t woken up at all to take Dexter out during the night. I PANICKED! Ohhh my gosh Kyle, he’s dead!!! I threw off the covers and darted down the stairs, my mind racing with all the horrible possible things that could have happened to the little guy. But then I turned the corner and he was all snuggled up, sleeping soundly as ever. I did double check to make sure he was breathing, but then headed back to bed (until 7:40 - resolution still in tact). Team Dexter = 1 point!
