Things going wrong:

-Savannah found Mark’s energy gum and decided to have a piece (Go ahead, laugh with me)

-She fought sleep until at least 9:30 last night (her bed time is 8pm).

-She then woke up at 1am WIDE EYED and ready to play.

-I used my stern Mommy voice too many times in my frustration and exhaustion.

-Slammed some doors, too.

-I tried everything, nothing worked.

-So, at 3:30am I did the ultimate bad Mommy thing: Went back to my own bed and turned off the monitor.

-I spilled orange juice this morning (Do you know how sticky that stuff is?)

-I look and feel like crap.

-My face is breaking out worse than it has in a long time (Will I ever grow out of acne?)

-Dude, I’m tired.

-And very, very, very grumpy. I’m not used to this sleep issue stuff anymore.

The Things That Make This Day a Tiny Bit Easier:

-Savannah let us sleep in until 8:15am.

-She’s not whiny today.

-Tomorrow is Friday, which means one more day and I’ll have help to maintain my sanity.

-I got to take nice, long, hot shower by myself (a rarity these days)

-Yup, that’s about all the sunshine in my stormy day.

I think I’ll go take a nap now.
