It is currently 3:55am on Friday morning and I am wide awake.
Yesterday ( Thursday) I spent the entire day with a headache that practically floored me. But this is not something new, i have suffered with bad headaches and migraines for many years now. But thats a story for another day.
So at about 5:30pm yesterday, when my boyfriend got home from work to find me and our son sitting on the couch watching Scooby Doo and me with a blanket over my head because the light from the sun shining through the window was making my head pound, he told me to go straight up to bed and lie down.
It was bliss, lying in a darkened room, in my cosy bed, with my head cushioned with soft pillows.
I only meant to rest for an hour or two, get up and eat a good dinner and be back in bed at a reasonable time and have a full night sleep.
Ha ha when does that ever happen. Me and my good sleep intentions. I slept through 2 alarms and didn't open my eyes until 11pm. By this time, it was the hunger that woke me and my headache was gone. So up i got and made myself a very late dinner and settled down to watch a little TV.
Almost 5 hours later and i am still awake. Well fuck it anyway, i am all over the place. I know i am tired but can i find the determination to go to bed...No!
I feel like sometimes it would be awesome to hibernate for 24 hours straight to let my body recover from some of the awful sleep patterns I follow.
I have an insanely busy few weeks coming up and I love keeping busy. The only problem is i am already tired going into it and during the busiest times, there will be very little chance to sleep. This weekend will be my time to rest and gear up.
I need to set aside a full day to just tidy my house but i wont even attempt it until i get the " I am awake enough to run a marathon" feeling back into my body.
Sometimes i wish someone was in charge of my sleep. Mr. Sandman, where are you? Your slacking.
