Dreams Evaporating
I’ve been extra tired lately. Stress sometimes just does me in. Today, after my sons had received the care they needed, I layed down to take a nap. I slept well and had a cool dream. Well at least, I think it was a cool dream. It was pleasant and interesting during the dream. Then…

What time do you go to bed and wake up currently? I’ve been sleeping from about 2am to 10am sometimes, but any given day is up in the air. I get insomnia regularly and sometimes when I can’t sleep for a long time my body makes up for it with a big crash. That happened…

Sleeping All Morning
I got about eight hours of sleep despite being up very late. I’ve got a small headache but otherwise feel pretty good. Yesterday was a weird day which is usually good or at least feels good. But I am a firm believer in unintended consequences, so just because it feels good doesn’t mean it is…
