mwaaahaaa haaaa, about ready to pass the hell out?
i can never just nap.......let alone really sit.......not from the time i get up at 6 or 6:30 till the time my little girl is asleep around 8:30. then i have my time......till i crash around 11 or 12.
i know people have longer days and work more than i do, but just being a solo parent .......every moment of every day, gets so exhausting......your brain never gets to rest. and it slowly erodes.
ahhh, the time of peace....she just now fell asleep.
sighhhhhhh, i can rest.....i can sit and my brain can rest.....no noise.......quiet......i crave quiet.
if i try to lie down or even sit and read......she is all over me like a cat on a newspaper.
ironically, if i am active, be it going out for a run or walk, she is delightful and great company, and actually quite mellow. the minute i stop being active, her energy surges.
she'll watch cartoons and hang, if i'm cleaning, or moving around.....but then if i try to sit or lie down next to your, she starts bouncing off the walls.
i have this "energy trade off" theory............
