youngmouseandlittlemouse

Hello again,totally exhausted but just about with it!What a crazy few days!This sounds a little mad,but I'm being severely beaten up just lately by my five year old daughter.She's always had a violent temper,but the last few days have gone beyond the pale.Scratches and bruises all over my body!She's been like a feral cat!Could be her epilepsy medication unsettling her,hope she settles down soon,or I'm in for some severe beatings.
What makes it all so tough to deal with is the 4am starts,they're sooooo hard to do.Occasional late nights and early mornings are ok,but it's been daily of late.Ah well,she goes off to her dad's for the weekend,lovely,sleep,sleep and more sleep.Sod the chores,let the washing pile up and the dust thicken,I'm going to be on strike.
Anyway,despite the difficulties,Little mouse-my daughter-is still making me laugh.The mouse names come from a series of books.Daddy usually reads her Big Mouse and Little Mouse stories,she loves them and dubbed Daddy,Big Mouse and herself,Little Mouse.I became Young Mouses,she's named her Grandma,House Mouse,Grandad,Old Mouse,her Auntie is Middle Mouse and one of my brothers is Uncle Tall Mouse.Little Mouse loves giving people new names and noone seems to mind their new monnikers.
I'm going to disappear now and get things organised for tomorrow.I'm so excited about getting some rest.I never ever thought my life would get to the stage where I'm looking forward to having a restful weekend and not going out partying!But here I am,fantasising about lazing around,watching crap television and eating too much.
Bye x

Hello there,thankyou for reading my blog.Let me tell you why I'm here.You see,sometimes I need to offload a little,sadly,I'm sat here on my own with nobody to moan at.
I'm a single mother to the most adorable child ever,thing is,she has Aspergers Syndrome,a cyst on her brain and has just recently developed epilepsy.Now,hold on there,don't you go feeling sorry for us,we're just fine,we have a lovely little life.
My biggest problem is a lack of sleep,I'm an insomniac and my daughter's hyperactive,not the greatest combination,but we make it work!As I type this,I'm thinking that I really should be tucked up in bed,let me tell you a little more,then I shall be off.
I'm hoping that keeping this diary will be cathartic,get rid of some of my stress,give people a few laughs and maybe,the best I could wish for would be to give at least one person a little hope if they're struggling with a situation akin to mine.It's tougher than I ever expected my life to be,but I've found new depths within myself and have learnt a lot-good and bad-about the people in my life.
I started off pretty well there and now my brains gone blank and I'm falling as;eep at my keyboard,back tomorrow for adventures of young mouse and little mouse.
