HELP!

I need a break. A real break. I am not sleeping well. I actually slept on the pull out bed last night so I could get some rest. That really didn't help due to Phill letting The White Dragon downstairs at 4:30am. The White Dragon then proceeded to come into the sunroom, where I was sleeping, jumped on the bed, and then purged her stomach on top of me. At least she didn't have much in her stomach. After cleaning that up, I tried to sleep in our bed with Phill, but his low level snoring kept me awake, so I went back down to the pull out bed.

Now I am struggling to be a nice mommy to Inwe and Larien on inadequate rest. Usually this would be pretty easy, but today Inwe has the "I wants", and Larien is extremely fussy. If my wonderful babysitter, T, didn't have field hockey practice I'd call her over. I keep saying to myself that nap time is just a little over half an hour away.

Do you think I'm going to make it to the pool with the girls to meet Phill later? I keep thinking of an email response that my sister, Maverick, sent to me a few years ago. "Negative, Ghost Rider, the pattern is full." (Ten points for the person, besides Mav, who knows the movie.)
