I was working on a novel, and I hit a great streak for a thousand words or so, but Vinnie is extremely clingy today. I don't know what to do with him, and I'm still reacting to things around me rather than acting in advance, which I think is because I am still exhausted. Maybe I was tired or sick before this weekend too, because I feel dizzy way too easily, and I'm just drained and can't be bothered to do anything more than just lie on the couch and watch TV with him. I know he needs me now more than ever, so I'm holding and playing with him more than I ever have but I'm just so frazzled and he won't leave me alone ever. I don't sleep well at night, last night was the first time I got about a good six hours of sleep in there, and I still don't think I've really cried to release the stress of the weekend. I'm happy staying at home right now, and have been for about three weeks, which sounds scary to me as well, since I usually need to get out at least once in a week! I don't know what I need right now but maybe 8 - 10 hours of decent sleep would be a good start, and maybe some more alone time at the moment.

Anyway, despite showing all the signs of tiredness, Vinnie is insisting he doesn't want to go to sleep. I'm thinking of just going in there and lying on the bed with him, in case he's just scared to go to sleep. I'd understand that after Saturday night.
