No Brainers
I am so tired.
I didn’t even realize how tired I was until we came home from the hospital and I had a chance to just stop for a bit. Things at the hospital can be slow and boring, but like I’ve said before, it’s a tedium built on terror. Even when nothing is going on there, I’m always “on”. Being home has allowed me to stop, and it’s kicking my ass. I’d be in bed right now if not for the fact that the baby shows absolutely no signs of going down for the night and Diva Girl is only halfway through her 47th viewing of The Incredibles.
Yeah, apparently I have no problem with bribing my kids.
Diva Girl’s been thrown for a loop this past week. Sure, it’s been fun sleeping at Gramma’s and swimming with Anna Nancy, but it doesn’t change the basic fact that mommy left her. In her 6 year old mind, Mommy had to make a choice, and she didn’t choose her. And, at the most basic level, she’s right. I’d do it again in a heartbeat, and it really wasn’t much of a choice, but it doesn’t mean I don’t deeply regret hurting my big girl like that. So, when she reminded me (within 30 minutes of arriving home) that The Incredibles was out on dvd now, well….That was a no-brainer too. I’m just happy she doesn’t seem to know about Barbie Fairytopia
