Dear World, I'm Sleeping ALONE! Score!

Dear World,

Tonight I am sleeping alone.
This may not come as a shock to most of you as you might remember The MacDaddy has been gone for almost six months now.
And I may or may not have mentioned the part about how the little people who reside here sleep in my bed, every night, always have...
But they are exhausting me.
I have not had a decent nights sleep in weeks or more.
The little girl sleeps sideways
And the little boy always has to be touching me.
None of it makes for good sleep.

So tonight I insisted they sleep in their bunkbed.
It's practice, I told them, for when Daddy comes home in a few weeks.
There was, in fact,  a little crying
And some sniffle-y begging: "I'm just a little guy you know!"
And then they went to bed.
It was all actually rather uneventful really.

We will see how the night goes.
I will let you know tomorrow, success or failure.

** Update:  It is now 3:51am.  My insomnia is in full swing and I have been awake since 2:30am when the baby girl came into my room.  She is currently sideways in my bed.  The boy remains in his bunkbed. Go Boy!

On a random note, I am thinking about visiting a tanning bed. I think I might need to even myself out a little after my very favorite neighbors comment of "Nice farmers tan" left me feeling like a complete loser.
