TV nite and sleeping with the enemy

Ok -

I have to get out of my funk and stop reading about beheadings, hostages and hurricanes.

That stuff will bring you down. No wonder on the season finale of my most fave HBO show 'Six Feet Under' the hubby decided that he was going to live in the bomb shelter for the rest of his time on earth. Life will get to you.

TV lineup today is Trading Spouses part 2. BB5 at 9 and Dog the Bounty Hunter at 10.

Today we will see how the Mom that is living with the ciggie commie will do. If Nakomis gets POV (please everyone, cross your fingers) and if Dog catches the bad guy. If these shows don't take your mind off the world for a few hours, nothing will.

On the homefront - you know we all have a little ragamuffin living with us for a few days. She is very tiny and she likes to sleep with you. As all moms know - you have a little extra sensory feeling that there is someone sleeping with you. This occurs when your new baby is hungry and with your lack of sleep you can actually go thru the motions with your eyes closed. Awaking to a bundle of joy at your side - belly full. It's a very rare occurance that a child is smothered in bed with the mother, unless the mother is not a mother at all .

So - I know she's there at all times. I know she is tiny and I know my thigh is large enough to squash her but somehow...I manage.

Other bed partners of our guest are having serious problems dealing. They awake in the middle of the night. Patting the bed. Looking for her and calling her when she's safely nestled on the pillow above your head. The panic runs thru them. It makes for a terrible sleep. (Hey, maybe thats what our problem is we just need a solid nights sleep). So - the little girl may be banned from the bed.

But - I guess it's for a good cause.
