5 hours sleep is not enough sleep.

Julia went on and on last night. Very needy/clingy. I was getting pretty cross with it all. I have to take her temp later to see if she's running warm or what. What makes this whole episode so difficult is not yet knowing the cause so I can tailor my responses so we all hopefully get some relief. Otherwise my attempts at comforting her are stabs in the dark.

I just nursed her, took her to pee, put her back down, and took my meds. Paul is still alseep. I should go back to sleep myself. What I'm going to do is my bloody walk while the going is good. THEN try to go back to sleep.

I'm hoping my mood will improve as I walk. A foul mood is no way to start a weekend.

Updated with walk stats on top.

Much better. We've all gotten naps and are all feeling less irritable.

Julia in particular slept a lot -- while Paul and I have been up doing house work (groceries for me and then repainting the rusty top of the dryer for him) and then took quick naps, she's been out since last night. Probably has something to do with whatever was making her such a grump yesterday.

I still don't know if it is teeth, separation anxieties, growing pains, or what. She looks longer every time I look at her but I didn't think of growing pains being a possibility until just now. My niece would complain about hers hurting her legs and I suppose it's the same for a toddler.
