Minor, sleep-deprived update

There have been not many updates here because of the following two factors working in conjunction with each other:

  1. Samantha doesn’t like to sleep for more than a few hours a night, and
  2. Zach thinks that getting up after 6am is a ridiculous proposition.

So the routine while I’ve been on leave has been for me to blearily entertain the three-year-old while Sarah gets another three or four hours’ sleep; once Sarah has been rested- and freshened-up I stare numbly at my computer for an hour while sipping coffee: works well.

But – I go back to work on Monday, and we’ll have to adjust to a normal working lifestyle. I’ll toddle off to the gym (stop laughing) at 6am, and Sarah will have to deal with the ensuing mayhem and chaos. She gets a reprieve during Zach’s kindergarten sessions and with-Gran days and weekends, though, so with good luck and a fair wind it will all work out.

On a lighter note, I called Zach a menace today, as he’d cannoned into me; he also received a stern tickling. However, he didn’t like that moniker, and insisted that he was a ‘menace rocket’ instead. I consider this to be a wonderfully apt nickname, so we’ll see if we can make it stick.
