Help STOP Am drowning under the weight of the non-sleeping never-sleeping who-needs-sleep-anyway toddler STOP Send sleep or sleep equivalent STOP Or sleep alternative STOP Not sure what “sleep equivalent” or “sleep alternative” even mean STOP In related news house is a crazy mess STOP Every time I pick something up to put away I find eight more things underneath the one thing I was going to clean up STOP Must find sleep soon STOP
(Why yes, the toddler DOES have a stuffy nose which keeps her from falling asleep and then wakes her up repeatedly all the night long, my poor baby! Why yes, I am starting to lose my mind from lack of sleep, just a little! This morning I couldn’t remember my own address! How awesome is that?! Zero. That’s how much. None at all. We’ll be better in a few days, I am sure. SURE.)
Brilliant! I would have never thought to write a telegram! I hope help comes soon! : )
(P.S. My toddler has a cold too..it really sucks.)
MESSAGE RECEIVED STOP UNABLE TO LOCATE REQUESTED ITEM SLEEP STOP WILL SEND EMERGENCY CHOCOLATE STOP
WILL SETTLE FOR CHOCOLATE STOP EXCELLENT PLAN STOP AMBROSIA I HOPE YOUR TODDLER GETS BETTER FASTER THAN THE ONE AT MY HOUSE SEEMS TO BE DOING STOP
Love the S.O.S. Wish I could help. Chocolate will just make you more sleepy after the pick me up, even though you’ll totally enjoy it. How about a friend to watch kids for a few hours so you can nap? I’ve watched kids for tired moms before.
How can you be so clever in such a sleep-deprived state? I, too, am exhausted. This week has been quite possibly the longest of my life. I hope yours has improved.
Jen, possibly it only seems clever because you’re in the same state of exhaustion as I am… that is definitely possible.
