Yawn
For the past 3 weeks I’ve watched my patience level diminish. At first I was running on adrenaline. Now I’m just tired.
I’m not jovial. I’m not sociable. The dogs drive me nuts. Everything has the potential of driving me nuts.
It’s weird because things are getting better. The nursing is working out and becoming more enjoyable. I’m feeling less like a machine and have been able to spend more quality time with Asher. I’m eating actual meals instead of just grabbing a quick bite here and there when I get extremely hungry. I feel connected to my friends and I’ve gotten out some.
Okay, so maybe I’m still not getting adequate sleep but I’m going to have to give up that dream anyway. I assume my body will adjust. Right?!? And it’s true that I’ve slept less the last couple nights and I don’t guess I can handle any loss of the little bit of broken sleep I’m getting these days.
With that said, I’m off to try to get some shut eye… after I feed Asher… and pump… and fix lunch… and clean up after lunch… and start a load of laundry… and probably by then it’ll be time to feed Asher again… sigh… But I will get some extra sleep today… I need it.
