Yesterday was a full day at work – the kind where you’re busy from the moment you walk in the door until the minute you leave.
Last night was pretty busy, too. A quick workout at the gym, a fun overnight guest (thanks for dropping in, Aunt M!) and a bit of sidework to plow through.
I finally crawled into bed at 10:30…and laid there, staring at the ceiling.
It annoys me to no end to have a night where I just can’t sleep, for no particular reason, especially when I’m tired.
As I toss and turn, I go through a mental checklist:
- Am I thirsty?
- Do I need to go to the restroom?
- Am I cold?
- Maybe too hot?
- Should I pet a kitty?
- Lay on this side?
- Lay on that side?
It’s no use. I invariably drift off to sleep about 30 minutes before the alarm goes off.Sigh…looks like it’s going to be a Copious Amount of Coffee Day.
maybe it was in the air. I couldn't fall asleep until 3:30am and I was wanting to get up at 5am to get more done on the house.
Maybe so!
Sheryl & Rich traveled from 10 AM on Monday, 8-3, to 9:30 A on Tuesday, 8-4 to get home from Hawaii! Without sleep. The painters are working on their house today 8-5, friends from Germany coming for lunch today and family from Minneapolis coming for weekend. I think their vacation has become "history" in a hurry.
