Three Hours of Sleep
Since last night’s blog post I’ve gotten three hours of sleep. The child was up all night with me and me with him. His brother went to sleep at 2 am. He fell asleep on the couch at 9 am. I was able to nap a little after that but everyone needed to be awake…

Ethereal Sleep
I didn’t go to bed until 3am. Ether really wanted to be next to me when I did. I usually roll back and forth to get comfortable. The spot he picked allowed me to do that and he didn’t mind this time. I bet that sounds weird, but he is an awesome cat. My sleep…

Sleep or Beer?
I was trying to sleep in this morning. Danny called me and reminded me that it was my turn to buy beer. He’s right of course but I wish he hadn’t called so early to talk about it. He suggested a very cheap beer called Rolling Rock. But I’m buying so I’m going to get…

Stephanie Day Off
Stephanie and I have agreed that she needs at least one day off a week from taking care of the children. Saturdays are her day off and my day to do all the supportive home care. It’s still a pretty typical day for the kids. My youngest wanted a bath first thing in the morning.…

Dreams Evaporating
I’ve been extra tired lately. Stress sometimes just does me in. Today, after my sons had received the care they needed, I layed down to take a nap. I slept well and had a cool dream. Well at least, I think it was a cool dream. It was pleasant and interesting during the dream. Then…

Not Enough Good Sleep
What time do you go to bed and wake up currently? I’ve been sleeping from about 2am to 10am sometimes, but any given day is up in the air. I get insomnia regularly and sometimes when I can’t sleep for a long time my body makes up for it with a big crash. That happened…
