5 am–update 3:38pm–3:49pm–9:07pm June 11, 2007
Posted by spacemom in : I dream of sleep , 5 commentsYes, Soleil woke at 5am. And then Luna did.
I am exhausted. How the hell do they have so much energy? All of the polly pocket princesses are on the floor of Luna’s room. There is a chess matching going on ( white appears to be winning) and Diego books everywhere.
Oy! I am going to have a long day!
Update- Day is not getting better. Low point? Perhaps it was the point when Soleil dropped her chocolate milk in Panera. Or when Luna had an accident outside of the restroom at the Hardware store when I was ordering a new toilet? No, I think the last one was irony, not a low point. Nothing like a toddler sobbing “I’m sorry” while you are assuring her it was okay while lysoling someone else’s floor.
Update2: Or perhaps the low point is Jay telling me that he may be allergic to the remicaid. Today is his last dose as he started a rash today during his infusion. Oh hell.. This was the only thing even giving him some relief… I want to cry…
Update 3: Jay’s rash is…well..unknown. Maybe a withdrawal symptom? Maybe an allergy? Maybe psoriasis? G-d only knows. The thing I do know is that he is talking to his dad and not curled up on the couch in pain like the last few nights.
Soleil lost her bedtime TV by refusing to listen and deliberately defying me after I explained the situation. This lead to the following conversation at bedtime:
me: Honey, you need to pee before bed.
Soleil: NO!
me: I really want you to go to the potty before bed.
Soleil: YOU CAN’T MAKE ME!!
me: No, I can’t, but if you wake up over night and have an accident on your bed, that is your fault, not mine.
Soleil: (eyes wide and nostrils flaring) FINE! I’m using YOUR potty! (and turns and runs to the master bathroom)
Hello? is she having her 5th birthday next month or her 15th? I refused to allow her to drag me into a power struggle. I am way too tired and scared for Jay…
Sigh….
Tomorrow will be better….
