It has been a very good week all around. I think I am making huge strides at work, Aiden is happy and healthy (and talking up a storm...if only I could understand it!) and I am happy and healthy. But for the last few weeks, I have been exhausted by about 7pm every night. I lay with Aiden to get him snuggled to sleep and often fall asleep alongside him only to wake up four hours later long enough to turn off lights and go back to bed.
I am looking forward to some positive changes in my work life that should help this. I would like to blame this fatigue on single parenthood, but it is not. It is just a cycle that I will push through. It will start this way, with the fatigue, then move on to insomnia. It happens about every six months or so. Six months of insomnia, then six months of uncontrollable fatigue.
The silver lining is that I am able to spend time snuggling with my man and taking naps after church on Sundays.
What a great silver lining!!!
