Facebook

I've just discovered Facebook. Is anyone else on it....I know some of you are because we've been writing on each other's wall! How fun....and addicting. I'm finding people from highschool that I haven't seen or talked to in 20 years. How fun is that?

Would you believe that it's 9:16 pm and Sam is in her bed screaming bloody murder? She's been asleep since 7:30ish and she's already starting her nightly routine of getting me out of my bed every couple of hours. Last night...again with waking me up every couple of hours. I don't know what to do with this kid.

I'm no moron! I've done this before, it's not rocket science. Why can't I get this kid to sleep through the night? I've tried feeding her a snack just before bed. Our pediatrician told me to let her cry it out, that she needs to learn how to fall back to sleep on her own. Yeah, well she will scream for as long as it takes me to finally get up and go in there. I'm talking 10 minutes....30 minutes...45 minutes of screaming until I finally can't take it anymore and go into her room just to lay her down and cover her back up. It's exhausting. She's 15 months old...and sleeps like a 2 week old. No wonder I always feel like shit!

So, I hope everyone has read my last post about property taxes and has fired off a stern email to their local government servants. I'm really ticked off about it....I'm sure you got that from my last post. It's not right for the government to take more when people are struggling. Right now, we're trying to work out a way to get rid of our truck for a gas efficient car. Luckily, Scott lost all his overtime....so all that extra money that I was spending on utilities and food is gone...poof! So, we need to trim the budget.

We could take the Dodgeball stance on earning money....by selling blood and semen. Well, might be tough for me to do that. I don't produce one, and I pass out at the sight of the other.

Wow, I'm on fire tonight!
