Proof I really was up early enough to see a sunrise! My sister torments me to death because I have always been a night owl, NOT a morning person, and she is the opposite. For years at convention I did not get up for breakfast. My kids did not eat breakfast either, so usually I would manage to wake up enough by the time it was over and the sleeping quarters came alive with returning people to get up and get me and X number of little people ready for the day. When my older girls were old enough to wait tables & were up, I managed to convince them to bring me coffee when they came back from breakfast. (I know, I was spoiled, but really, how DID you think I survived having 12 children??!) JK! Anyway, when my sister moved back to NE and started going to the same convention as me, somehow she managed to convince me that getting up for breakfast was a GOOD thing! To top that off, there have been years we even went on a walk BEFORE breakfast! WOW! So, I am converted. I've even been known to wake HER up. The best thing about it all is that we discovered the coffee gets put on really early! So, we pull on our sweatshirts & tennies & head over to the cookhouse & grab our before breakfast cup! At our spring convention it's already light really early, but this time of year the sun doesn't start coming up till a little before six.
The unloading, cleaning, & convention put away will wait,
My after-convention treat is my favorite re-treat. I hate showers. Convention ones are a pain, a necessity at best. Nothing like soaking away the aches of the day.
Tomorrow's another day, but tonight I'm relaxing!! AAAHHHHHH!
