Quiet Time

My little button has been sleeping since 9 a.m. It is now 11:33 a.m. and I don't know what to do with myself. Last night was particularly challenging, up at 10, midnight, 1, 3, 5:30...I don't even know anymore. He awoke at 10 absolutely screaming. Bad dream? Pain? Who knows. Something was wrong, poor kiddo. He's catching up on some much needed sleep, as I should have done, but I haven't been able to put down this book and wanted to start this book.

That's one thing that I really miss since becoming a mum: Reading. I quickly learned that trying to read a book while nursing was difficult, unless it was a trade paperback, and I don't read trade paperbacks very often. I am looking forward to our move to the 2BR, where I can once again read in bed before I go to sleep.

  1. I haven't read a thing since D was born. Even when he's actually sleeping, I feel like there's no point cuz he could wake up at any second, and it's just too hard to get invested in something I'll have to put down again. Hopefully this nap thing I'm doing works or helps, and I can post what I did. Naive a little? Yea, I probably am...

  2. I should clarify that my reading used to consist of novels. Big novels. Award winners. Sigh. Now I'm lucky if I can finish a magazine. However, I do have to pick up the new tell-all on Oprah at the library this morning. Hopefully I can focus enough on that.
