Tired. So very, very tired. So tired that while driving to go pick up Monkey from daycare I wished my vehicle had a feature whereby I could close my eyes to "rest" at red lights and this mechanism would let me know when the light turned green. That would be cool, wouldn't it? Okay, maybe not. Probably dangerous. Moving on ...
Wrestling my child into his car seat everytime we go anywhere ... so very exhausting, frustrating ... worried the neighbors or random shoppers will think I'm abusing him since he screams bloody murder every single time for the past two days. Up until then, he would fight it randomly. Not anymore. Every. Single. Time. Total of three times today.
Monkey's teething again. This time it's the upper right molar. Got up at FIVE AM. Doesn't he know mommy's been busy every night working? Oh right ...
My simplify plan? Yeah ... well, I've shot myself in the foot there. Working at work. Check. Working from home? Check. "What?!" you say. "Didn't you say you didn't want to do this?" you say. Well, I sorta volunteered for a thing ... off the books. Supposedly getting an upgrade for some software I have on my laptop in exchange (might have gotten myself into a sticky situation there). Then there's the other project I begged to be on because it involves a high profile client. What was I thinking? Oh yeah, and of course I'm going on vacation soon so everyone wants to make sure they get their stuff before I leave.
I've had some brilliant post ideas in the past few days. Can I remember them? No. Why? Lack of sleep? Perhaps. Constantly forgetting to take my thyroid medicine? Perhaps. That's a vicious circle. Forget the pill. Less memory function. Forget another pill. Even less memory function. And really dry hands. Forget to put lotion on before bed. You get the picture.
Since I can't write even a coherent blog post I'm not going to attempt to work tonight even though I should. Waah. Waah. Waah. :P
Going to get some little chocolate donuts and go to bed. Breakfast of champions ... afterall it's Olympic season.

Hope you have a good sleep.
I always find when I get that way, I am better off taking the nap (although, my medicine tends to ruin mental function....yay allergies). Even if I lose 4 hours of productivity to sleeping, I'm so much better off mentally that, what would have taken me maybe all day, I can now do in half the time.
I'm sorry you are so tired. I can relate to pretty much everything you wrote, if that's any consolitaion!
When I'm too tired to remember my vitamins, I give that job to Londo. I figure if we are both trying to remember my vitamins, hopefully one of us will. Good luck!
I agree with Becoming Mommy. When I'm as exhausted as you sound, despite having a laundry list of things to do, I'm always better off just giving in to sleep--if that's possible. You'll feel much better after some rest and will be more productive.
I hope Monkey's tooth comes in soon. I hear those molars are rough, poor guy. Wish I had advice for the car seat resistance. It's most likely just a phase that will, hopefully, pass soon. If not, you could always just let Monkey drive and you could nap in the car seat. ;-)
Thanks gals. The sleep did wonders and I'm heading off to bed again soon (tonight I blew off work to go to yoga! YAY!).
lilmary -- you know, the whole Britney Spears thing with her kid and the car? I thought she was a complete idiot, although I must say when Monkey gets like that I can understand WHY she did it. Not that I would EVER but I can see how that could happen now!
