I'm Tired

I don't do well when I'm tired. I'm also not one to "burn the midnight oil." However, since Cal has been sleeping through the night, I have been staying up late.. too late. And this last week was a duzie (I don't know how to spell that, and apparently, neither does spellcheck). Anyway, I was a horrible mother today. Barely any playing, lots of "looks" to Lacey trying to communicate to her to cut it out (in my defense, however, she was a stinker), no book reading, and the list goes on. I'm sitting here (at 1130, of course) trying to figure out how moms that stay up late do it! I guess maybe coffee.. That's gotta be it.. I just need my sleep. My husband and I were talking about it the other night - I used to sleep.. I mean SLEEP! I just love a good nap! A good, LONG nap (we're talking 3hrs!). And now - no naps, no sleeping in to catch up (as if I could do that anyway). I just "wake up" now which is really annoying! It must just be that I'm getting older.. And that I always have a list of things to do - Like this blog! I've been wanting to journal. I used to do it when I was in high school, and I just love going back and reading different parts! I've tried it several times only to write like a page or two and forget about it. So this is my attempt to journal :) Today I was tired.. I was absolutely no fun to my dear, sweet children.. I made lunch meat sandwiches for dinner, and am topping it off by staying up way too late again! OK.. I'm going to bed.. To rest my head, so I won't be dead (tomorrow :) ) see.. tired.
