Why, people?

When 14 month old is tired,he won’t just go to sleep? And why must he cry for ages before falling asleep? Even when I’m nursing him off to sleep he must have that last sob before he’s gone la-la.

When 3 year old is tired he will be VERY ANNOYING and ANGRY and cry for the slightest thing. And when I try to put him for a nap, he doesn’t want to. When I know and he knows and the WHOLE FAMILY can see he is exhausted. Why then does he finally fall asleep at the dinner table in mid mouthful? Yes, it *is* the cutest thing.

When 6 year old is exhausted and physically drained why does he STILL comes out of his room and say that he can’t sleep; he isn’t tired; he heard a funny noise?

And riddle me this, people. Why, when 32 year old is so tired in the middle of the day that she can barely open her eyes and she’s slurring her words when she’s reading the children a story, she just CAN’T have one short nap.

ONE SHORT NAP, IT’S ALL I ASK! *cries*

Just riddle me this, people. RIDDLE ME THIS.

*sigh*

I’m an Australian citizen. I’m law-abiding. OK, I could do more helping out the local community but I pay my taxes (if my income was above the threshold that is) and I’m enrolled to vote and I do vote every election. I mow my lawns, stick to the Level 4 water restrictions and am friendly with my neighbours.

Clearly that’s not enough to call myself Australian. View full article »
