And here we are. Week 3 of being at home and boy it is a doozy. Not quite as anxiety laden as last week but much more sleep deprivation. Have I mentioned that I do not do well on little sleep? I am cranky and whiny and all woe-is-me.
Oh but it would be so much worse if I had to go to work.
Teething? God I hope so. WA has me up every couple hours during the night. It is pure torture. And of course as I was putting him down this morning at 4:10am I thought, well at least he’s just nursing and then going right back to sleep.
Right. I’ve been up since 3:50am after going to sleep 5 hours earlier and getting up twice (three times?) I thought well if I’m not going to get sleep then I might as well get up and do some work. Except for whatever reason my remote connection wasn’t working and then WA fell asleep in my arms. But of course I had already had a cup of coffee and if I went to sleep (which I easily could have, even after 10 cups of coffee) it was guaranteed that OE would be up 5 minutes later.
And we have to be at the doctor’s at 9am and then a play group after that. I’m not sure I’m going to have the Mommy patience to do all of this but I don’t have a choice so I will get it done. If only I had a nap to look forward to. WA isn’t napping this week either.
Well I better go get in the shower while WA is still sleeping (because apparently this is when he can sleep, when I can’t) and OE is being entertained by Thomas.
Is that enough whining for you? I know, it is obnoxious.
