enough sleep?

lately i can't seem to get enough sleep.

i even fall asleep at work. i catch myself nodding off mid-afternoon. it's not good.

i've been waking up at two in the morning for no reason at all. although two nights ago the mouse frantically scrambling in the wall woke me up and was really freaky.

and the dreams... i've been having freaky, weird dreams which is odd because i usually don't remember my dreams. dreams about russian conspiracies, and my sister and i have to sort them out. dreams about getting all the tables and chairs to the beach on time and for what I have no idea. dreams about things i can't remember but the residue hangs over me long after i finally wake up and it's not a pleasant feeling.

i'd like to have nice, happy, non-freaky dreams for once. dreams that leave me feeling all warm and fuzzy inside, instead of cold, scared and alone.

sleep right now is a priority. here's hoping for happy sleep.

This really helped me on the plane ride over: http://www.badgerbalm.com/pc-393-2-sleep-balm.aspx

And I love the graphic and the reference to poetic badgers with insomnia!

Hey when I feel tired and can't keep my eyes open during the day I really think it is because I haved gone running or worked out for a little while. You spent so much time focusing on your body when you were doing chiefs training just like I did for the two races this spring. When I wasn't doing as much as I was before I just couldn't keep my eyes open. You would think the opposit. So I would say that if you aren't running or working out start doing it again so that your body is tired at night and you sleep better. I really think that is the key. As for your dreams you better Pray and ask Heavenly Father to help you have good dream. I use to have scarey dream when I was little and that is what I decided to do was pray. I tell Lane to do the same thing. Love you
