feeling resentful
Ark Boy is not falling asleep
Farm Girl is screaming in Ren Man's arms
Try to explain to Ark Boy that Farm Girl needs mommy

Wait 8.2 seconds
"Mommy is going to give baby milk"
Ark Boy: "Mommy-lay-down"

Ren Man comes to say Farm Girl is very stressed
Ask for 5 minutes
Tell him to bounce Farm Girl

Ark Boy still awake holding arm in death grip
Feeling mad at Ark Boy
He's two years
Farm Girl is two months
Who needs me more?
Insist on leaving Ark Boy
Ark Boy cries for 2.2 seconds
Calm screaming Farm Girl down in 3 seconds
Feel bad for Ren Man
Ren Man is working tomorrow at 6am
Move Farm Girl to cradle
Go downstairs to put ground beef in refrigerator to thaw for tomorrow's dinner because forgot to do it earlier
Back upstairs

Too scared to try to sleep

5:30am
Ren Man leaves for work
Hear Ark Boy: "Work! Outside! Van! Work!"
Go calm Ark Boy
Decide to bring Ark Boy to his bed
If he's not asleep by 7am will bring to shower
Look at clock
Too far away
No contacts
Can't see
Hmmm- looks like 7am-ish
bring Ark Boy to shower
Start computer
check time.

5:40am
oh.
very tired suddenly.
DSL is painfully slow
frustrated
check to make sure Ark Boy hasn't drowned
Ark Boy standing in shower spray hugging rubber duck
Check Farm Girl
Still sleeping
Feel mad/resentful/frustrated that she doesn't get as much cosleeping time as I want her to have
Miss her
check to make sure Ark Boy hasn't drowned
Ark Boy standing in shower spray coloring on shower walls with bath crayon stubs
must get more bath crayons
Wonder how long I can justify leaving him in there by himself
Think about cuddling with Farm Girl
Will take too long
Might wake her
Must wear her a lot today

6:10am
check web pages loading
still loading
hate dsl
feels like dial up

6:11am
get in shower
love shower
so does Ark Boy
must share shower spray
Ren Man has tomorrow off
hoping for solo shower tomorrow
maybe more Farm Girl time too

6:15am
think maybe Ark Boy needs more mommy time
try to resolve to spend more time with him today
not sure what to do with him though
he's happy playing by himself
plus- he knocks down the block towers I make for him
say to self: Self, he's 2 -I'm 25
eek
I'm 25

6:30am
shower over
sad
Bring Ark Boy to watch more "Ark Boy TV"
Feel slightly guilty
Feel very tired
contemplate getting into bed with Farm Girl
Wet hair
Bed- no good
should get dressed
having friends for dinner
want to make hamburger rolls and hamburger
Should start while Ark Boy is TV zombie and Farm Girl is sleeping
