Tired

Usually I understand very well how lucky I have it. I am the mother of a Monkey who loves to sleep and always has. Even at a few weeks old we used to have to try wake her up to feed which was an impossible task, she just wanted to stay in the land of nod.

But today I am tired. Three day working weeks plus the second sickness for Monkey in three weeks and a few crap nights sleep from her, and a husband type creature who didn't get home till late as he was at a gig are laying heavily on my shoulders this morning.

I want to be in bed. Badly.

And I am eating healthily lately too (5 and a half kilos gone - yay for me) which means I can't use sugary, hot coffee as an intravenous pick me up like I used to.

Ah well, at least the Monkey got some sleep last night. The child almost always sleeps on her side or belly but there was a variation when I went to check on her before bed last night.

Yup, sleeping bum up is the new black. Very cute though.
