For the past few weeks, I've been unable to get to sleep before 2a.m. and I hate it. I think there has been one night in the past month that I've actually been in bed and asleep before midnight. Not sure what the deal is, but it's got to stop! It would be okay if I felt like I could run the vacuum cleaner; however, something tells me that the other people I live with wouldn't exactly like the sound of the vacuum running at 2:00 in the morning. Truth be told, I've done that before and Brad took a huge hunk out of my backside - but I can't blame him, really.
I've tried all the "wind down" tricks - warm bath, reading, Sleepytime Tea, etc. Nothing works. I just know that one of these days, the insomnia will go away and I'll return to sleeping like a normal human being. I'm not sure what the trigger is - it's not caffeine related, it's not depression related (I'm taking Zoloft and it's working wonderfully, thank you for asking), I'm just a freak (shut up, you don't have to agree!!!).
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to snuggle my 21½ month old who doesn't seem to want to go to sleep herself tonight. Ahhh, leave her alone for 15 minutes and she manages to put herself to sleep. I think she missed seeing her daddy today - he's been gone all day and she adores him.
