Tired
March 2nd, 2010 | 
Author: Blogging because i have not done so in days .
Im energyless these days and i have no idea why , Ru is sleeping well (he slept all night last night although was up for a few hours with Eilidh) . I get a nice break every afternoon but come the evening i am exhausted . I feel like i am going to bed earlier every evening , last night turning in at only 8 o’clock .
This morning i feel like a zombie and am tempted to take a nap this afternoon when the kids are at nursery , problem with that is i will not be able to sleep tonight . Leaving me even more tired tomorrow - an endless cycle .
Feel so many changes are coming our way , have had to give up studying due to financial reasons (and the reality of not being able to apply to uni for a few years so was best waiting , going to do some Open University work) . Craig is away to France for his first 6 week block end of April and i don’t know how any of us will manage without him .
He may be starting back his old part time job on top of his Phd which means no family time , im having to start job hunting but its so difficult with the kids . Childcare would cost a fortune.
Otherwise kids are well , Ru feel out his cot a few days ago and cut his little face up but is recovering well (and his cot has not been lowered down so hopefully will not happen again) . Girls are obsessed with jigsaws just now and mummy is not complaining as they spend hours just sitting at the back table doing them . Means less mess , fighting and more time for relaxing and playing with Ru (although Ru did manage to head-but me at the weekend leaving a nice bruise on my cheek) .
Going to go and take a look at the job centre website now , really just don’t want to work i guess .

Oh hun, I have been there, it’s horrible having to look for a job when you really don’t want to leave the little ones. *big hugs* xxx

I know the sleeplessness cycle well. Sleep badly at night, nap during the day, lie awake at night, nap the next day etc etc. Sometimes you’ve just got to take the hit to give yourself a decent night’s sleep, children permitting!

6 weeks without the hubby?? I think I’d go out of my mind. You must be one strong lady!

Oh Laura… so sorry. I can only imagine how difficult it will be to do the single mom thing for 6 whole weeks. I’ve had to do it a week at a time here and there and that isn’t any fun. And on top of being just exhausted… even worse.
