New blog!

I'm packing up my virtual U-Haul and moving! I've been blogging now for all of a month, but I think I like the layout better here than on MySpace, so here I am. You can find my previous musings here.

I'd post something witty and amusing, but it's one o'clock in the morning. Witty and amusing goes to bed at 11:30, while I'm stuck awake with a not-tired 3yo. I put Kendra, Aspen, and Levi into drop-in care Thursday morning so that I could take care of some appointments. Great idea, yes, but they have a naptime after lunch in daycare. Apparently it's state-mandated; who'da thunk? Aspen gave up her nap well over a year ago, but she fell asleep while on her cot. Her little "take-home" note says she slept for two hours. A two-hour nap, for a non-napping child who's a night owl by nature, means that she won't be sleepy anytime soon.

Me? I've been ready to crash for three hours and am fighting off sleep, but you don't just go to bed with a three-year-old wandering the house! Locking her in her room isn't an option, and Jeff is in Houston again, so we can't trade shifts. I'd be perfectly fine with putting her to bed and letting her be mad until she falls asleep. Unfortunately, she's a screamer, and since tonight that would mean waking up five other sleeping children, I'm just not going to go there.

An all-nighter it is, then! We have a winner! **dingdingding**
