I had weird dreams, not exactly nightmares but they were very odd. My alarm for work woke me in the middle of one so now I'm trying to wake up although I've been at work for an hour. :sleep:
I tried to do all the self soothing things and had myself ready for bed and sleep. When I got to bed all this grief came up and I cried and cried. I rang a friend and that was good. I had a good talk.
I slept really well after my talk with my friend last night. Then I also did lots of self soothing sleeping all day after that as well. I dream of trying to solve a murder, going to an Indigenous party, shopping with both of my parents separately - and being unappreciated.
I guess I just don't sleep much nights anymore for the time being. Looking forward to this changing back. I don't know what started it up.
My kids are on school vacation and between them staying awake later and while not in school days, maybe this has a little something to do with it. On a normal night of them not needing to go to school, I do get to wake up later the next morning. Maybe this is partially it.
It's 4:19 am and this is not good. If I can't fall asleep before the clocks turn to 5 am I won't sleep tonight. 5:55 am is a trigger time for me. sigh.
Well I'm still awake and it's 2:20 am. I need to be up in three hours. :/ and it's way too late to take my Ambien. Oh well. Hopefully I fall asleep soon. The good news is, I have an appointment in the morning and the rest of the day off. :)
