The Ridiculous Bedtime Routine

If you have children, you know that bedtime can be a challenge. With the whole, "I  need a drink of water" "I have to go potty" business.  I took a long, hard look at my own bedtime routine. And it's pretty ridiculous.

It goes a little something like this:

• Pee
• Shower
• Pee again (when I get out of the shower, of course)
• Brush, floss, mouthwash
• Pee again
• Have a drink of water
• Climb into bed
• Turn on the fan
• Put lotion on my feet and hands. Put socks on
• Apply lip balm
• Blow my nose
• Put my CPAP mask on
• Realize that I have to pee again
• Pee
• Have another drink of water on my way back to bed
• Climb back into bed
• Reapply lip balm
• Blow my nose again
• Put CPAP back on
• Watch an entire episode of "Golden Girls"
• Pee one last time
• Off to sleep  

The whole process only takes about 5-6 hours. Now, who wants me to sleep over?
