Day 19: Too Pooped to Post . . .

March 11, 2008 angie

a picture, that is.  This is how fried I am today:  the camera’s batteries need charged, and I can’t work up the motivation to put them in the charger.  I was feeling tired yesterday, mostly from one too many nights up past 10:30, and the time change just put me over the edge.  I had big plans last night to go to bed early.  Things were looking pretty good, too.  Eli was in bed around 6:45 and Elena was in bed (though not sleeping) by 7:30.  All I had to do was update the blog and order invites for Eli’s baptism, then it was off to bed for me.  Here’s how it really went:

9:00 – Looking good.  Teeth brushed, contacts out, jammies on, ready to settle in bed with my book.       

9:15 – Eli’s awake.  I think he thinks he just took a nice nap and he’s ready to go for an hour or two. 

10:00 – Get Eli back to sleep.  Take a couple of ibuprofen for monster headache that’s building.  Settle into bed and just about to drift off when Elena begins a marathon bout of coughing.  Everytime I start to fall out, she starts up again.  Get up and give her cough medicine and rub her back to help her settle back into sleep.

11:45 – Elena is still hacking away and I’m about to kill someone.  Take my pillow and a blanket downstairs to the couch so I don’t have to listen to it anymore.  At some point I pass out.

2:30 – Wake up wondering where the &*(*& I am and with a huge crick in my neck.  Stumble back up to my bed.

5:30 – Elena comes in to tell me she’s peed the bed.  Get up, fix her bed, get her settled back in.  Another round of coughing begins.

6:00 – Eli decides this is a fine morning to start the day before the crack of dawn.   Listening to him grunt like a caveman for 20 minutes before I concede defeat.  Make a big-ass pot of coffee and dream about going to bed early tonight.
