gosh I need a break. I feel like I haven't slept in weeks (in reality, years - literally...no longer than a couple hours at a time).

my kids were exhausted yesterday and fell asleep at 6-6:30. not totally abnomal. My youngest slept solidly til 9, then woke up and was up til almost 1 am. yes, almost 4 straight hours. Finally get her back down, and my oldest was up at 5 for the day. Baby got up at 6.

my husband doesn't do night wakings because he has to be up for work at 4 am, but neither girl responds to him at night anyway and only escalates, which makes things worse.

I'm at the point today where I just don't want anyone touching me or talking to me. I'm obviously not taking that out on them, but I want to scream! I want the dog to stop following me every flipping step I take, I want his nails to stop clicking, I want my toddler to just entertain herself for a little bit, and I don't even know.

Anyway, just venting. Days like today I wish I worked outside the home and got some time to myself/with adults.
