Sleeping is bad for your nerves...

Sleep, oh wonderful respite. Time to wonder worlds unknown or be all you can be without the army. To doze into slumber and rejuvenate oneself in the nether land. But alas, 2 nights ago I was not allowed to fall gently away. One child, a certain small boy, was in a pinching and rubbing and poking mood. In his sleep, he would pinch me or try stick his hand under me or poke my eyeballs......ugh.....after awhile he either stopped or I stopped noticing because sleep came. Only to be crashed again by a crying terrified child at my bedside.

I groggily asked: "What's wrong?"

"My nose is bleeding"

BAM! Wake up call. Wide awake now. I look up and there is my eldest Covered in blood. All over her face and pajamas. Yuck. I rush her to the bathroom and administer bloody nose first aid. After she is cleaned up I inform her that she absolutely cannot pick her nose for at least 2 days (Today she calmly informed Melissa that I had told her that and that she had not picked her nose at all these last 2 days. lol)
I then take her back to bed, but alas the sheets, part of her blanket and part of her pillow are covered in blood, too. Too tired to change the sheets, I just flipped the pillow and blanket and put her on the opposite side of the bed.

My life the every interesting rollercoaster...
