So Tired.

I just can’t seem to catch enough sleep lately. Carrie’s actually been doing pretty well, sleeping almost through most nights, but I’ve been dragging. It probably doesn’t help so much that I stay up a bit late, but 11 to 6 with at most only one short interruption ought to be enough for anyone, right?

And I really have no excuses, since Carrie took 2 naps for a whopping 5 1/2 hours total today, and if I had been smart I would have napped a bit too. Instead I puttered. I accomplished nothing useful besides doing a load of laundry and knitting half of a dishcloth. I did read a few chapters in the 5th Harry Potter book, but it’s a lost cause to get it completely re-read before Saturday. I kind of wish I’d thought to re-read it a couple of weeks ago!

I really should go to bed now, but first I have to pump, clean the pump parts, finish tidying up the kitchen, run the dishwasher, take the dogs out, and…wait, no wonder I’m so tired. And the trick will be to not pick my book back up when I’m done with all that and stay up even later.
