and this is hell. Like, this is the fucking worst.
I meant to carve out a teensy bit of time for myself last night, but I pretty much typed up a locked post and then fell into bed. So now I'm doing it this morning, which cuts into my time with Mommy but... actually, in the past few months she's gotten better at grasping that if I take a break when visiting with her, or don't visit for as long as she would like (all day, every day) then it's not a rejection of her as a person or a mother, I just need some quiet and less people. Hospitals are very noisy, and right now the entire family is there. So I'll go in in a little bit.
In the meantime, enjoy this calming post about a baby pudu, which I guess is a type of ungulate. There's a video and some pictures.
