The Poppet is sleeping so right now I should be doing alot of things.. like housework, making myself look presentable..paying attention to the dog!!! I just don't have the energy.
Lately Miss Poppy has not been the happiest camper..
With this warm weather she is having trouble sleeping, she can't sleep unless she is swaddled but summer swaddles are soo stretchy that baby houdini always finds her way out.. So I have been getting up to swaddle and resettle her every half an hour for a while.. This explains why my bronchitis just doesn't want to go away and probably why I have had an irritable girl most days. Or atleast part of the reason, she has been really grumpy around feeding time for quite a while now.. not even the doctor or maternal health nurse had a reason for me beyond "she's probably having a growth spurt"... for two months?????
Understandably we have not been out much. The Poppet has been unhappy and since we live in an area where you have to drive to go anywhere.. sleep deprived I don't really trust myself behind the wheel. So we have stayed in,, And I started to feel a little blue..It's only natural I think.
Luckily I know something that always makes me feel better.. Gifting. Especially when it is something I have made myself or when it's to someone who really needs it.
I am almost to the bottom of my list for the bottle cozies and I am planning some new knitted things too..
It makes me feel good to know that I can cheer other people up even if I am not soo cheery myself.
So that's where Poppet On is at right now. Gifting to some wonderful friends and to some people I hardly know, and it has helped me to feel better.
Well my mother in law is due here any minute... so I best at least brush my hair and make sure there is no food on my face... hang on did I eat today??????????
Hope your having a lovely day
