Last night...
I am clearly missing the gene required to be a good caregiver for children. Last night, SD6 woke up at 4:30 AM, crying for SO for something. All that SO told me was that it was "not important at all". She woke up again at 5:30 crying for him because she'd wet the bed. Both times, without knowing what she was crying about, my only instinct was to bury my head under my pillow and curse her under my breath for not shutting the hell up so that I could get some sleep.
I was supposed to be at work at 8 today because I absolutely must leave at 5. Because of the bedwetting and waking up twice, I didn't get back to sleep until 6:30 AM; obviously, this means that I overslept and didn't get to work until 9. Which means that in order to get off of work at 5, I have to work through my lunch today.
Summer is the worst season because of visitation. I cannot wait until it's over. Only eight more days left in the first part of the summer visitation, thank God. The only bad thing is that it ends with 4th of July, which I'm sure is going to involve some sort of ~family activity~.

Well, I don't actually help
Well, I don't actually help out in the process. It was just bad enough to be woken up by the crying, on its own. I stay in bed, like you. Down, you say? Time to invest in a new pillow...
LOL ok I feel better now.
LOL ok I feel better now. When SD5 wakes up crying and I happened to be in the bathroom at the time, I glared at her and told her to go back to bed. Then I went back into the room, Woke up SO and told him to deal with her. Then I turn on a very loud fan by my head and I hear NOTHING. Its pure bliss!
Oh man... nice. I am loving
Oh man... nice. I am loving the ideas on what to do about noise dampering!
Yeah, pretty standard. When
Yeah, pretty standard. When SD wakes up either sick or crying my first instinct is not to lovingly care for her, but rather to throttle her and tell her to STFU. I don't do that, obviously, but I think the not-so-nice thoughts are normal. }:)
Good to know!
