I hope you can get sleep. Life is GOOD when you feel well-rested, and even a good life can be trying when you are dead tired!!!! Germany is going to be wonderful!
And whatever works with Bella. Money is not a bad form of bribery, because then she can start learning about budgeting. It's a win-win!
So sorry to hear that you're still struggling with getting enough sleep at night. If I don't get enough rest, I'm so cranky and miserable. Sure hope you can find something that works for you soon! Oh, I used to bribe my girls with Skittles when they were little...and it worked like a charm! Sometimes, you have to do what you have to do!
I just read the last several posts, back to Bella's birthday...I am not above bribing kids either, have 5 from 28 to 14....hope your sleep will be sweet when you lay your head down..
Back when I was a kid we got a dollar for every A on our report card. (A dollar was worth a lot more in the old days--LOL!) But that was the only "bribery" I ever experienced.
PS I hated math, too. I remember having to do flash cards at night with my mom--and she was mean and tough! So I memorized the times tables so I could get out of doing that...but then I promptly forgot them again. ;)
I don't think a little bribery now and then hurts anyone. Especially since it's such a great motivator! Get some rest - being tired makes everything else so hard!
Who am I??? Well, a lot more than will fit into a little box! I am many things, to many people, but I am and always will be...the Queen! I'm an Air Force veteran, a retired Army Wife, an Army Mom, and an Air Force Mom! I have a passion for paper crafting, especially stamping. It's a terrific way to be creative, even if you have little "artistic" talent like me, lol! My family is everything to me, and I think it shows in everything I do. Happiness is my realm, and I personally welcome you!

Hope you have a fabulous day, too!
And do you have kids running around screaming until 10:30pm+ at night? I'm sure you don't miss that!

Bribery tends to work magic.
Kitty food breath is the WORST!!!!!
I hope Thomas is good with his money being spent by the females in his house!!!!!
Hey, if bribery works, go for it! LOL I'm glad Bella is liking school. Makes it so much easier on her and you.
I hope you're able to get some much needed sleep soon. I know what it feels like to be really, really tired. *hugs*

Nice to have some incentive.
I'll give you a dollar if you sleep through the night - thoroughly and restfully...
LOL money always works Lmao! Sleep has been a pipe dream here as well. I miss it. Here's hoping Bella has a great outstanding year.
