Hi Everyone!
Well, it is a dull day. I am here at work and just cannot seem to get motivated to do much of anything.
I am so tired, Miranda has been having a sleep problem for the past few nights. She just tries to stay up as late as possible, then has a huge fit when we lay her down, even though I lay down with her for about 15 mins. She said this morning she was going to go right to sleep when I tell her tonight. We will see. I think it is because I told her if she keeps it up, no Barbie jeep for her b-day. I know, its bribery plain and simple, but I am desperate.
My DH also seems clingy and grouchy. He is always complaining that we do not spend enough time together, and I agree. I do try to set aside time, but you know, it is hard to have a child, work full time and also have hours of us time. I know it will get better, it is just one of those days.
My work is tedious today, balancing accounts, which is just adding and adding. Eventually you just see strings of numbers, even when you close your eyes.
I guess I better keep this short, I am a grouch. I am sorry readers, I thought a post would cheer things up. I promise next time to be interesting and in a much better mood!
I hope everyone has a wonderful day.
God Bless,
Nicky
