No Demons Today

Last night sucked. I had the hardest time getting to
sleep. I tossed and turned, trying to find a comfortable
position, but I couldn't. I'm not use to sleeping alone
anymore, I guess. Just when I started to get comfortable,
it was time to get up and now I'm tired and cranky. Watch
out children, it's mommy from hell.

I think Kiki is going through a growth spurt. She's
eatting far more often then she normally does. I hope I
don't have to struggle through another milk supply
shortage like I did last month. Remind me why I'm doing
this again? Civilized, modern women use formula. I know
all the health benefits of breastmilk and thats why I do
it, but it is so much work. The only reward is knowing
that I'm giving her the best start possible.

Annie is driving me absolutely NUTS. She is Miss Know-it-
all and it's really pissing me off. This morning when I
was dropping her off at summer camp, there was a Jeep
Grand Cherokee parked next to us and she said "That's the
same as Grandma Sue's car, only it's blue." I said "No it
isn't." She then yelled "Yes it is!" Her grandmother
drives that new Kia suv, I don't know what it is, but it
isn't a Jeep. It doesn't even matter. I couldn't convince
her it was a different car and eventually I just dropped
it, because I knew I wouldn't win and I'd only go crazy
trying. I'm a college graduate, I don't think of myself as
brilliant- averagely intelligent, maybe- but I think I've
got a six year old beat. I hope she grows out of this,
because everyone is telling me she's been terribly
combatent about everything. She just has to be right at
all cost.

I'm feeling okay today. No demons are haunting me right
now. I'm hoping I can muster up enough energy to get the
house straightened up. Snookums is going to come home
early today, because he had the 4am-8am watch and he'll be
tired. I want the house neat so he doesn't feel like he
has to do it.

Well, Kiki is requesting food-again-I'm starting to feel
like a milking cow.
