So, I haven’t really mentioned this yet here, but I think I have insomnia. I have always had a week here and there where I don’t sleep very well. And with two small kids, sleep deprivation is pretty normal. But the past few weeks – and esp this week have been truly rough.
Yesterday, I was awake until 3:30am and woke up at 7:30. Now I love, love, love to sleep and could ideally use about 12 hours a night, so this is odd for me to wake after only 4 hours. I’m often waking up after 2 or 3 hours sleep to lay awake for a couple hours before falling back to sleep.
So I’m really really tired. I’ve tried all sorts of things recommended in articles with titles like “How to get a good nights sleep” – like not drinking caffeine after lunch and going to bed at the same time, blah blah blah. Its just not working!! And really, you can only have so much coffee, so I am not functioning very well. I actually drove right past my street the other day — and didn’t notice for about 1/2 a mile! Not good…. I’m not sure what to do…
