always seem to go to hell in a handbasket lol.

I got home, having arranged with my wifes Sister to babysit, to find that my wife had no intention of going anywhere (except possibly straight to bed) as our darling daughter is teething badly and had been a major pain (as well as being IN major pain) all day...

Once we'd managed to sort her out and get her to bed we ended up just watching Without a Trace and then hit the sack ourselves at about 10.
Right in the middle of a lovely nights sleep my daughter starts crying (this is at 2am). I get her off again by 3, she's up again at 3.30 having thrown up all her milk (my wife does this one!) back down again at 4.30 and then crying again at 6am.

Needless to say I'm a zombie this morning and my wife has called in sick to look after our daughter today. I left them sleeping next to each other in our bed - it looked so cute it almost made up for last night lol.

No rest for the wicked though - I got in to find that a client hasn't received original Bills of Lading for his shipment and now can't get the goods released, my boss is cursing because he's in London in a 10 mile tail-back of traffic and wants directions, and another colleague is trying to sort out his travel arrangements for a trip starting Sunday.....

I'm putting a 'closed' sign above my head and going to sleep!!

ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz

the joys of a new baby. They are precious and well worth it but man, you can walk through that first year in a near coma from all the loss of sleep.

this too shall pass, eventually it will be a distant memory
