If there is one thing I am it's a night owl. I work late to get business done, but last night was different. I had to batch some photos for the web so once I got that started all I could do is wait for them to get done.
So I got comfy on my couch and watch a movie that was on Lifetime.
I shouldn't have done that.
While the movie was interesting and I enjoyed it, it kept my mind active.
When I decided it was probably time to go to bed, albeit 1:00am, my mind was still kinda racing.
So I laid there and listened to the sounds in my house for a minute thinking I would hear a rhythm that would eventually allow me to fall asleep. NOPE. So then I started counting backwards from 100, I would get to 70 and forget stop counting every time because my mind started thinking about the movie again. So I would start over. I restarted 5 times.
Then I decided that I would focus on breathing. I listened to my breathing only to find that it was not soothing, but annoying. So what do you think I did? I went back to the couch and turned on another Lifetime Movie, this time it worked....I conked out. The next thing I know is I am back in my bed. I must have subconsciously went back to my room.
Morning came all too soon and I realize how lame I am to stay up so late as I have no time to rest. But like I always say "I can sleep when I'm dead."
