Otis has been terrible at night again. He gets up first at 2 AM and then at
6:30 AM. My face and collar bone have little scratches from him trying to
get my attention. Fred and I are exhausted all the time.

The boys have been in the basement for the last two nights and we've slept
really well. I know I've written about this a lot and there's nothing new
here. It's just sad to isolate them that way when we're so busy all day
with the kids. The cats really want their nighttime attention and I love
the nighttime purrs and cuddles. Just not the scratches!

Oh well, we'll do this for a while and see if we become human again. We
might start to like being awake all day ;-)

Sorry the situation is still so difficult. I suppose I should be
thankful for my little angels. The other night I did half wake up when
Miranda was standing on my chest and kneading me, but I fell right back
to sleep and just remembered it in the morning as a sweet dream (it was
real, though). Caliban has decided that I should wake up at 5.30 every
morning, but I'm an early bird anyway, so I don't mind. Besides, how can
I be mad at him when he comes up and snuggles to my face and kneads and
purrs his fuzzy little head off?
