Sleep, Perchance to Dream

For the last two nights Olive has slept the entire night through. Which is what I wanted, of course now that I have actually said it out loud, she will no longer do that. This is how my universe rolls. I actually feel worse with more sleep. I think it is like when your newborn first sleeps all the way through the night, you get up way more times to make sure they are still breathing. I spend more time rolling over trying to stare into the crate to make sure the little bugger hasn't choked herself to death on fuzz then I do on sleep.

Going for walks is like trying to herd cats. Herbie has decided to forget anything he once knew and Olive hasn't known anything from the get go, so chaos reigns supreme. We are making progress in certain areas, I remained upright the entire walk today. Olive only ate 39 daisy's and 1 twig. Unlike yesterday which involved daisy's, twigs and a giant bumblebee that I had to rip out of her mouth. Getting stung, totally priceless.

It is amazing and sad that something that weighs 4 pounds can make a grown woman almost cry. I look way older than my chronological age. Playing guess my age puts my about 76 and that is with two nights of almost sleep under my belt, two days ago I was roughly 92. And not a cute 92 either. This is due to the fact that I have taken to napping on the flippin' floor. I had forgotten how much I love sleep. I adore it, right after coffee it is my favorite thing and now that I have so little of it, I love it even more. A good 6 hours that is all I ask.

Having babies of any kind is best left to the youthful. Oh sure I read the sayings "Babies make me feel so young, so vibrant, so full of life." Just stuff it. Because I know for a fact that you are sleep deprived and have no idea what you are saying. Trying to get unsuspecting people in your trap. The baby trap. Evil, I say, just evil.

But I do think that everyone should go out and get a puppy TODAY! you will so enjoy your experience. It will make everything brighter. You can thank me later.
