Blah

Interrupted sleep, working nights and running all have me feeling a bit sluggish today. It is now 1pm and I feel as if I've just woken up--even with all the coffee. We had made progress in the sleeping department, until I started working 5:30pm to 9:30pm. Sophia doesn't like the fact that I'm not there for her final feeding before bed. She's been refusing the bottle, but not in a fussy kind of way, more passively: Mark says she just falls asleep and has no interest. If she refuses the bottle that means I get her up when I get home for a feeding at 10pm, which in the past would have been part of our normal schedule. But now that she's getting older this interruption in her sleep pattern means more interruptions later on in the night. Like three more times before 7am. Not pleasant.

Last night Mark successfully gave her the bottle at bedtime. Which meant that she slept till 1am and didn't get up again until 7am. I can deal with that...except for the fact that I get home at 10pm feeling wired and don't really feel sleepy until midnight. Luckily I'm working these hours only for another week. Then we can get back to normal, whatever that is.

As you can imagine running is the last thing I feel like doing today. I feel like blah, I look even more blah, which makes me want to eat blah; and it doesn't help that when I look out the window all I see is blah.

I hear tomorrow is supposed to be better: sunny, warm, less-blah. I could go for that. I look forward to tomorrow, but only if there's some sleep between now and then.
