Dear Brain,
I must admit you have lasted a lot longer than I thought you would keeping your wiring working correctly these holidays.
But I have to confess your memory is going on you.
Yesterday was Monday. M.o.n.d.a.y. Not Tuesday. And Sunday, was Sunday. Not Monday. I don’t know where you skipped a day. But getting excited about school going back and thinking you can skip days isn’t possible. You’ll end up turning up to school days early and nobody will be there. Then you will look the fool. Stop skipping days.
Cleaning a room isn’t that hard. Yes you have to try to organise the space, and decide what is going into the land of the never-never. But seriously you need to step it up a notch. The job isn’t going to get done if you find things and have to examine them all the time. You’ve seen all that baby stuff before. And the books have to be packed away. I’m sorry you want to read them, but there is nowhere to store them if they are left out.
Keeping it simple with dinner at the moment is a good thinking. You’re on the ball there. Too much stress at arsnic hour won’t do you any good. I have noticed you haven’t been hurting the past couple of days around that time. Well done, keep doing what you’re doing there.
But I have to pull you up about the dreams. What’s the go there? Seriously, it’s taking ages for you to log off at night and let me fall into a slumber. But then you hit me with these insane dreams! The ones that wake me up and I lay there trying to figure out if it was real or not are the most frustrating. Husband is not having an affair with SIL, and the dog did not put on 20kgs in one night. Seriously who was the chick you kept telling me was my SIL anyway? She looks nothing like any of them! And the dog… 20 extra kg on her? Were you trippin when you made me dream that?
You’ve just got to hold on a little longer. A two day trip to the city, the B’s for a few days, and my Mum for a couple of days after that. Only thirteen more sleeps to go.
You. Can. Do. It!!!
I know you can. I promise I will feed your cravings of a chocolate high, and relax your little soul with the odd glass of Southern Comfort on the hard days. Just hang in there a little longer.
Yours truly, Rest of the Body xxx
P.S. I understand your need to read. So I have gracefully allowed you the pleasure by keeping out the Book of Joe. I know how you like to be humoured by it.

Love it! My brain often doesn’t listen to my body either – it’s going to be a struggle that will most probably lead to too much coffee and not enough exercise for the rest of my life!
Oh, I lose days ALL the time! I’m not sure whether it’s because I’m eager for them to be over or because I just have no weekly structure other than it being punctuated with Pal’s days off! Which are all screwed up at the moment anyway!

Ha ha! So funny and quirky. My brain and body are always fighting too. Right now my body is heavy and lulling me to nap before I have a giddy spell and keel over. My brain wants to read blogs, catch up on my to-do list and get everything in order NOW! Actually my brain might have a split personality because it’s also warning me if I don’t nap while bub is napping fit now, I may not get the chance to later. Or maybe it’s the too little mes, one on either shoulder, screaming different instructions into my brain. Ok, brains taking over, shutting it all down. Nap time!

I think my brain and your brain are on the same wavelength. Random dreams are my specialty. And yesterday I mad full intentions of sorting the kids toys, and then I read blogs instead.
Oh and books! I started reading one of my favorites again and I am having a serious time putting it down! Why can’t I just read all day??

I wonder if I could forward this letter to my brain… when. will. it. STOP! An entertaining, funny (but true!), read.
