Sleep Regression.
Seriously.
Say it slowly. Sound it out. Let it roll off the tongue.
Sounds effing horrible, doesn’t it? Well, it is. It’s horrible. The baby that used to sleep 5-8 hours in one hit, prefers to nap in 2-3 hour intervals during the night. Which means, I’m getting almost no sleep… and trying to write. And trying to get through the day…
You know, like a mother. Heh…
Needless to say, I’m not getting everything done that I want to get done. I’m grumpy, tired and just…
BUT SHE’S SO DAMN CUTE. And in her defense, she is teething three teeth simultaneously. You know, overachiever that she is 😉
Anyway – let’s look at what I got done this week…
1. Finish FOD edits OMG DONE and sent to awesome agent
2. Draft Experiment – draft started… we’ll see how this goes
3. Outline edits for AI – Won’t be doing this for a few months.
4. Do CP work for J & H – Finishing off J notes. H in progress
5. Write OWM piece for this month – Rough drafted
6. Pick next OWM prompt – PICTURE PICKED!!!
7. Keep up with Social Media and Blogs – Social Media, CHECK. Blogs – I will catch up by the end of the week
8. Mwah – Babeh! – well DUH
All things and my lack of coherence and sleep… I’m not doing horribly.
Hoping that Kami will start sleeping better, and that I’ll start finding some more time maybe stuffed in my sock drawer or something. I mean, that’s realistic, right? Sock drawers hide Tardis’ all the time, right? RIGHT?!?

Let’s all try to kick some major July arse!!!
Also. Sleep now. If I can. Yes.
Poor babe! 3 teeth? Ouch. But a star just like her mama.
You are doing awesome on those goals. Hope you can find that extra time and Zzzzz’s
*loves* I wish I could help you! I totally feel your pain! I think all babies do this at some point! The good thing for you, though, is you didn’t have to go to work like I did. 🙂 So there’s a little sunshine there. You can stay in PJs all day and nap when she naps. Me, nope…and now, I’m stuck. Can’t seem to sleep past 7am anymore…My parents tell me that’s old age setting in. LOL But, it really doesn’t help that I am such a light sleeper and TheBoy gets up at 7am so I’m up! Maybe when he gets to those teenage years, he’ll be able to sleep in! I hope you get some sleep. Honestly, I don’t know how you do it. After getting up at 1am yesterday, and not being able to go back to sleep, I had to go to work and in my down time, I started rewriting a short story. Where do you get coherency in lack of sleep?! OMG I dread reading what I wrote yesterday! LOL
It’s sooooo hard trying to be creative when tired. My brain wanders even more than usual. But what a wonderful (albeit sleep-deprived) time of life you’re experiencing right now. Hopefully Kami settles back into her sleeping-through-the-night routine soon so you can get that shut-eye you crave.
Teething is never fun. Catch sleep while you can!
But, on the bright side, you’re doing great on your goals. Go you! I’d be a cranky non-productive mess if I wasn’t get any sleep.
