1/8/20 Pre-workout Routine

  • 12:55: The Mayor 2.2 woke me up – bad dream
  • 1:30 ish: Goop 2.1 came in our room “silently”, slept on floor
  • 3:00 ish: The Boss 2.3 woke me up, “Dad can you sleep on my [hardwood] floor”
  • 3:15 ish: back to bed
  • 4:00 ish: “Dad can you sleep on my [hardwood] floor” (persistent little one)
