4-yr-old confession: “Mommy, I made a mess in your room…. But you made most of the mess in your room.”

Life has been very stressful lately, and the way being a single parent keeps me trapped in my house at night when the anxiety really hits, has been rough. I used to go for long jogs or bike rides at night and those things are completely inaccessible to me now.

Someone abandoned their orange guy in my yard. I couldnt leave him out in the storm, so he’s in the house at least for the night. Not good timing for a new pet, but don’t know if my kid will accept no for an answer. I hate having to be the rational decisionmaker for the household.

My 4-yr-old has stayed up until around midnight the past 3 nights, even after having melatonin tonight. Each night i had plans to get things done once she was down and by the time it happened i was too tired to accomplish anything and also too stressed to sleep any time soon.

We don’t go out much, and while I’m not as consistent as I could be about masking in public, I do still mask when I go to the grocery store, which is infrequent. Trying to prioritize sleeping more, which is probably the number one thing I can do to improve my health (at least without spending $).

My kid and I have, fortunately, managed not to get COVID for a third time since she started preschool, but during the cold months we get sick twice a month on average. Last year I lost count of the respiratory infections, and we also had norovirus.

Since my kid started preschool I’ve been sick more frequently than any other period in my life. I also seem to have become particularly susceptible to sinus infections and losing my sense of smell, which I suspect is due to long COVID.

Thought 2026 was off to a good start when I won at Scrabble about a half hour in, but the next morning I woke up with swollen lymph nodes and have spent the last four days miserable and barely getting out of bed. I’ve tested negative for Covid, flu A&B, and RSV. Whatever it is, I hate it.

Kiddo has been moody lately and has been testing boundaries trying to hurt my feelings when she’s grumpy, but after she eats, naps or otherwise finds a path to a better mood, she comes to me saying “I’m so sorry I was mean!” I’ve never heard such sincerity from an adult. I hope she stays like this🤞

I’m staying in a haunted historic hotel, and upon hearing what sounded like children’s footsteps running up and down the stairs in the middle of the night, I found myself unable to muster the slightest bit of fear or even unease. I am really no fun at all.

My toxic trait is falling asleep while trying to get my toddler to nap, then waking up to find she is still awake, but extra grumpy and defiant and it’s now too late for her to nap, and there is no hope of getting anything done around the house

Whoever’s in charge of naming batteries needs to get their shit together. The ones I need for my kid’s light-up book have *5* different names, and not one of them yields results when searched in instacart, even though I know that Kroger and CVS carry them.

I’ve recently learned that one of the best parts of being employed as a parent w/very few parent friends is that now I can pay people for childcare and then I have someone with whom to share memes about toddler behavior.

Toddler arguments against different kinds of fruit (proposed by me as an alternative to having chocolate for breakfast): Orange—too juicy. You’ll make a big mess. Apple—too much work. It will fall down. Blueberries. It won’t help.

Not gonna say it made up for the sleep deficit I’ve accrued during nearly 3 years of solo parenting, but I did feel pretty decent today and got around to some chores that had been on my list for a while.

On Saturday, I not only took an after breakfast nap while my kid watched cartoons in my bed, but I then proceeded to fall asleep at 8pm and sleep for almost 12 consecutive hours (facilitated by my kid sleeping for 12 hours after skipping her afternoon nap).
