SLEEP!!

So, last week we all got thrown off on sleep after both children got a tummy bug. Started off with taking the baby into the hospital around 11 or so, which caused us to get to bed kind of late. Well, not kind of but really late. So all week it has been getting worse on the fight to get them sleeping right. Last night the baby kept waking less then a hour after getting him to bed, so in an attempt to get him sleeping better we laid on the couch. I was thinking my daughter had finally gone to bed, however about 30 mins after laying down with him and almost having him back to sleep she was out here. Come about 1 am or so i woke her up so i could get up and get the little one in his bed and get some blood flow in my lower body, as I was stuck on my back for a long period of time and laying on my back is super painful so I never fell asleep from 11 til 1. Then because Lily was woken up at that point she was awake, so we stayed awake until 3 and I was done and was ready for bed so she went to her room. I guess around 30 mins later she came in the room with me. Did not wake until noon today.

I cannot begin to explain how much it sucks to watch your day wither away but to wake up that late just completely throws my day off.  My house looks like a horrible science project or something i mean there is no new anything growing ha ha but there is a lot that needs to be done. I feel overly stressed about the way it looks and kind of embarrassed. Which kind of further hinders the way i feel about doing much. Waiting for some extra energy to come on but it doesn't seem to be coming. This Thursday I will be buying D.E. and see if that will help my energy level and all that to return but who knows anymore. I just keep hoping that maybe a good night sleep will do it for me, but the kids are kind of lacking right now in sleeping well so what kind of fun is this to sleep our whole day out blah.

But on a good note we are talking about trying to get stationed back closer to family. This whole being far away from everyone and not even having my husband around just does not do it for me. At least when he is here it is nice and I don't mind being here. As soon as a few months have passed and left feeling so alone and not having much to do or really any people around just one decent friend that i still talk to pretty much daily. Other then that I feel completely alone and like my kids really are all that I have which yes it is not all that bad i at least have them, but is this really all there is anymore? I do not think so. I really would love to have more to do be able to take the kids and have some fun. Even the zoo here sucked last time we went and really how can that work out I always thought zoos were just fun and that was all there was to it. Apparently that is not the case but I do think i will be taking the kids there one day just because Lily had some fun and it gives me an excuse to be able to walk around and not be completely bored.

Well either way, this whole day needs to be restarted and hopefully with a better start but since that will not happen i can hope for a better one tomorrow. Hope everyone else's day has been better and that their week is excellent.
