horrible nights

Nights with Camille are going more and more downhill.  It's getting bad.  She wakes up with the bug dreams and then cannot go back to sleep.  She is up for hours and so in turn we are up for hours.  Last night she came in at 1:15.  I comforted her and then tried to put her back in her bed.  That didn't work and J was up so I brought her in our room, turned on the lights, made her a bed on the floor showing her with the lights on there were no bugs anywhere and tried to go back to sleep.  5 minutes later she was back up screaming.  So then we tried the pack and play that happened to be in our room.  She was up and down in that several times.  It was about then that we noticed Jack was not in our room so John went on a hunt for him.  He was not in the house.  oops.  This is the second time this has happened.  When he gets left out he gets bored and wanders.  So John came back up telling me he was going to have to search for Jack.  I said I would go bc I was done dealing with C and I left w no shoes, braless, in pjs wo my glasses.  oops.  My vision is barely bad but I am used to seeing clearly and so when I can't it bugs me.  So here I am driving slowly around the neighborhood with the window down yelling his name.  OMG not what I want to be doing at 2 am.  A car pulls up behind me and I am annoyed and try to turn so they will not be behind me anymore.  They follow.  About this time J calls and tells me Jack is home.  Great.  About this time I realize its a cop behind me.  Oh shit.  Ugh my heart starts beating.  No I am not really doing anything wrong but still.  Finally after following me 4 blocks he pulls me over 2 blocks from home.  UGH!!!!!!!  I have not had a night include a 2 am cop for 8 years.  I am just an old mother, I had been asleep for 4 hours by this point.  hehehhe   He asks for my drives license which of course I do not have.  I try to explain that I live 2 blocks from there and I was searching for my dog.  After a few minutes he seems to finally believe I'm harmless and sends me on my way.  Ugh, I get home and J and C are still up.  At this point I tell J to go to the basement and I will deal with C.  So over and over I am telling her she is fine and go to bed but no luck.  I get up and give her meds thinking her legs her.  Nope.  Finally by 3 I have had it.  I bring her downstairs to the basement and get her settled on the couch.  J is in the guest room.  He comes out to see what is going on.  I wanted her to sleep with a light on hoping she could see there were no bugs.  So I leave her on the couch and him in the room.  At that point all was quiet.  I think it still took us all about 45 minutes to fall back to sleep.  I hope I never have another night like that again. She seems to have these issues every 3rd night so I hope we sleep tonight.  The strategy next time is to let her sleep in on the couch in the living room with the lights on.  I can't wait till she has her own room and can sleep with the lights on.  I so hope this works.  Please have your fingers crossed for me.  If not she is heading to boarding school.  Does that start in preschool????
