Sleep

2021-10-04 I am tired & grumpy at her grumping to go to sleep doesn't work Mornings are hard- interruptions I don't rest well enough I want more time for myself What if I try my best to sleep? And I don't worry about the future? And I just take care of what I need (breakfast, clother, etc.) while she sleeps? And we deal with things in the morning? I love snuggling with her, and she bounces back quickly I like taking care of myself School is not set up for night She's tired too A. doesn't like to miss out A- wants more attention She's a night owl Owls She's 5 A- wants more Control (So are we) A- wants more love she's still learning how to settle down I don't like controlled being either Grabbing me Hitting me me Needing in the same room Thinking Will we homeschool after COVID? Kids manage breakfast clothes teeth I want to Use my better time If I go away to cool down If I hold her hands If I empathize When do I get more time? Ah, stuff's not important anyway, she'll grow & more independent. & then Screaming, Crying, eventually a snuggle More escalation anger.
