No sleep vs no sleep
Everyone keeps warning us that when we finally do get a child we are going to be in a world of pain on the sleep deprivation. Well, last night and many nights over the last two months, I have not been able to sleep because of my mother. Last night, she fell again and her neighbor called alarmed when he found her with blood on her head. This was after two nights ago when she called me twice in the wee hours to tell me she had called to cancel the doctor’s appointment I had made her.
As I tossed and turned and tried to figure out what to do, I just kept coming back to nothing. I’m wondering if nothing is even anything to hang your hat on – surely there is something I am supposed to be doing right now, or supposed to have learned by now, or supposed to see clearly by now – isn’t there?
