oh.honey.must.have.rest.

First you (must) need to nail sleep and then everything will fall into the right place. You’re so busy all the time so I don’t have the clever answers to “when and/or how” but my 2 cents suggestions are “now and in a comfy bed with your family far, far away” :)PS: My favorite is “planning your b-day eventS” GO Lucky GO!!

Wowza! Hope things are running a little more smooth. Need help?

oh my h#$%… seriously just sleep. WOW. By the way – why are you moving? Good luck… we can cancel my lunch so that you can have some sanity. I’m so so so so sorry.

I’m sorry that I can’t be there to help. Poor sweet baby. I had no idea. I love you.

Hi Shannon, all this sounds too familiar, except the moving and RAW images part. I hope you can give yourself a free day soon.
