Basically, all I want to do this week is do physical activities for a bit outside, and then sew the rest of the day.
My daughter, of course, wants to do the inverse. Makes for a total catastrophe in the house after I sew for more than an hour (filled with interruptions, of course, equating only about twenty minutes of actual sewing progress).
But I really need to clean up the house. For the mental health of all of us.

I’m not sure I can stay awake long enough to put my daughter to bed tonight…

God came through in a beautiful and unanticipated way today. No, my husband didn’t get much work, but he did get it confirmed that he gets to stay in a hotel for the next two weeks, instead of in his car. He’ll still have to stay it in later and probably often, but this was s happy surprise. I’m so glad he gets a good, comfortable, cool, and clean place to sleep each night for now.
Thank you, God. Amen.

My husband gets to start sleeping in his car again for work. Hopefully, it will be a very brief period of time during which he has to do this… again.
God, keep us safe and whole and well. Help my husband to find ease, safety, and good sleep, especially while he is away for work. Help him to have a comfortable bed each night and easy, good sleep. In your name, I pray. Amen.

That point at which you are so tired that a half hour passes in about five minutes… yeah, that’s where I am right now. Fortunately, my daughter passed out and I didn’t, so I’m not in my bed and ready to get some good sleep these next few hours. And hopefully even longer than usual.
God, guide us, please. Keep us safe and well and whole, and make us sleep well and solid hours tonight and each night, that we be refreshed and excited and ready for the next day and all its wonderful possibilities. In your name, I pray. Amen.

It is Oktoberfest season now, and we attended our first this evening as a big family unit. And we looked super cute. Especially the two babies in their outfits that we put together, and which included handmade aprons and head scarves. Super duper cute.
My daughter tried to spend the entire evening in the bounce house, of course… haha.

Just before we planned to go out my daughter into her bed, she stand right next to the chair where I am sitting and just starts letting them rip. When I mentioned changing her diaper, she ran to a corner, where she proceeded to continue ripping them in such an awful, watery way. The room smelled so bad, I nearly threw up, and also nearly peed myself coughing on the smell.

Oftentimes, the best surprises and the little ones done with love.
Thank you, God. Please, keep us safe, and make us well and whole. And get rid of these ants and all the other bugs that we want not in our house, please. In your name, I pray. Amen.

Why is that, some nights, she’s just full of energy, despite it’s being way late already? Why? She even had loads of extra activity today. She should have passed out hours ago.

I didn’t get a nap today. It wasn’t a good result by the time we were having dinner. I think I need to focus more on making sure I get a nap with my daughter. Because we can’t both be desperately tired at the same time.
