Halloween Hangover
When Rissa has stayed up too late the night before… like last night, Halloween… the next morning is… interesting.
Let’s say that she is fragile. She uses her frowny face a lot. She grumbles. She has been known to flop on the floor and emit a “Wailey, Wailey, Wailey!” Traversing the space between the island and the cutlery drawer is too much for her.
“Mummy… Mummy, could you please…?”
“Could I please what?”
“Could you please get me a spoon?” Pitiful labrador retriever eyebrows.
I look at her, I look at the cutlery drawer 6 feet away from her. “No.”
“But… but… It’s SO far and you’re closer.”
My snort of response was not delicate.
She then did her tribute to Charlie Brown over to the cutlery drawer and sadly retrieved the spoon.

“It is very difficult to be me.”
Bedtime should be sacrosanct. Especially when Halloween falls on a school night.
