sooo sleepy
I am not sleeping lately. I can't really figure out why but it's not happening. SO after another night of tossing and turning I finally fell asleep around 3am. DH was aware of this because he told me he got up to deal with the baby at around 330 because he felt bad, he knew I had been up late. At 6:10 he wakes me up to pick out his tie. Is it wrong that I am a touch ticked at this. I am sleep deprived and getting a cold. I can't tell anymore if I am just cranky or if I am justified in my ticked-offed-ness.

Re: sooo sleepy
I've been similar lately. I can't seem to find the energy yet I can't seem to sleep. And this is my third sore throat this month.
January sucks.
I think you're justified to be a little ticked off.
We don't have kids, but let me tell you what happens EVERY morning at our house and what I realized.
Every morning DH wakes up about an hour before I should. We agreed a long time ago that this was fine. He goes into a different room to change into his work clothes and showers in the guest bath. He suggested this arrangement because he knows I like to get more sleep than he does. Despite this EVERY morning, about twenty minutes after he's gotten up he comes back into our room turns on the overhead lights and gets his socks. The then plunks himself down on our bed (where I'm sleeping) to put them on. He knows this wakes me up.
I've realized that he just likes a little attention in the morning. It drives me bonkers that he wants to keep up the sharade of "letting me sleep", but I don't think he likes going to work without a little interaction. It drives me crazy but I've now come to find it a little cute.
That being said we don't have kids, and I probably sleep far too much, so I'm sure I'd be even more ticked off if I did have kids and didn't get enough sleep.
Normally I am okay with giving him fashion advice and I don't care where he gets ready. I sleep with the TV on so I don't have to hear snoring. But when I am tired my eyes will not focus. When I wake up it usually takes me a few minutes to be able to see even if I am wearing my glasses. This morning however I could tell that his whole look was bad and it was out of focus.
HE had on a boldly striped blue and brown shirt (it's nice on it's own) a bold checked yellow tie ( nice with another shirt) and a blazer that when I describe it, sounds bad but it's actually really nice. It looks denim (but is silk...it's very cool) and has a pinstripe plaid pattern to it. He decided that brown pants would complete the look. It was not good.
He said, "so what do you think? Is this the right tie?" I said, "only if the office is dark." I thought he was joking.
He looked hurt. I am glad I didn't tell him he looked like a used car salesman. I had to tell him to change his blazer and that the shirt he was wearing couldn't have a patterned tie. So he said "OH I have the right..."
"Not the purple one."
"what about..."
"not the black one either"
He looked so sad. I told him that from now on, if he wanted help with ties it had to be before bed. I can't be nice in the morning. He went tie-less today.
Perhaps tie-less is for the best today.
I will say at least my hubby doesn't ask for opinions about his socks :-)
