the entry that almost was
By heather | August 10, 2008
I was going to write today about how I finally hit a wall with getting up at 3am and 6am EVERY DAY FOR THE LAST MONTH. And I was going to explain how I begged and cried and convinced Brett to switch nighttime feeding duty with me so I would put EK to bed at 11pm and he would do the 3/6am feedings.
Then I was going to write about how last night, EK slept from 11:30pm until after 5am, which is basically sleeping through the night ON THE ONE NIGHT THAT I WASN’T THE POOR BASTARD GETTING UP WITH HER.
And then I was going to metaphorically stomp my feet and bitch about how THAT IS SO UNFAIR, WHY WHY WHY? This always happens to me! And I always get in line at the grocery store behind the asshole who NEEDS a price check or is writing a check and can’t find a pen! Woe is me!
But then I thought, smiling a beautific smile, that this blog is about finding ATMAN -soul searching and inner peace, if you will, and maybe I could be a bigger person than that and not begrudge Brett his full 8 hours of sleep or act like a spoiled child just because I never get to sleep that many hours in a row and probably never will EVER AGAIN.
Because really, I have to get up and pump anyway or my boobs would explode like a melted milkshake. I am lucky to have a supportive husband who is helpful and accomodating. Yes.
Smiles wider…cheeks hurting…
I don’t need to write that entry.
