INSOMNIA

I have always been a sleeper. Ask my hubby, I can take a nap like no other. Driving on a trip longer than an hour? Guaranteed I'm going to nap. Sleeping in on a Saturday?? I'm there! Sunday afternoon naps? HEAVEN! (although I can still do that, thank goodness!) I've always told him that my top three pleasures in the world are sleep, food and sex. (in that order!) But for some reason, I have lost the ability to sleep through the night. So many reasons, I guess, like hormones, and my bladder, oh, my bladder, it's the size of a freakin' lima bean!, and now I'm sleeping alone 4 nights a week, and I have to turn a fan on cause I hear noises in the house, and I'm anxious all the time, cause life is stressful, and can't turn my brain off, and worried about everything, and PLEASE, oh PLEASE, can I just SLEEP????!!!! The half an Ambien isn't working, so I'm now going to try maybe 3/4 of one or a whole one? By the end of the year, I'll be popping Ambien like I'm eating M&M's! I would give anything to sleep ALL. NIGHT. LONG. sighhhh

On a lighter note- I have my final in my class this week, and also need to turn in my 2 papers with my final. And trying to get my Christmas decorations up. Last weekend was great! The Sensations, my daughters drill team (BTW, I have been doing drill team for 10 years, that's what I get for having 3 girls!) I need a special award for that. Anywho, the Sensations took first place in their first competition last weekend. They are awesome, as usual! And my darling, perfect grandbaby, Drake, turns 1 tomorrow. We had his b-day party yesterday. He is walking!
