Pretty cool! And – I’m in my studio, with my insomnia being soothed by the rhythmic sound of snoring studio-pooches (Maggie and Kat) while the kilns click in the background. Doesn’t get much better … Spent some time with the plotter tonight … working through some additional ideas for recycled wine/liquor bottles (more to come, but – …
Stolen studio time …
What a week! But, I don’t have to work tomorrow (friend’s wedding) – AND I was able to carve out some studio time (it’s what insomniacs do) … so, a good week! [Throw in an unexpected visit to my grandparents, two ‘fast food’ meals – YUM!!!, and home made Nacho’s – loaded, of course!] I’m …
Up, down, up, down
Up at 9p yesterday, back to sleep at 5am. Airport runs and errands, then back to my ‘own schedule’ for a day or two (while being on-call, so who knows …?) Then up at 6am (did I say A.M. ?!?) on Friday for a vet surgical appointment (two of our Neo’s have cherry eyes – …
Hibernation …
So … I seem to have fallen into a strange routine. I’ve been sleeping 11+ hours on Mondays. This is bizarre to me, as I typically function on 4-7 hours of sleep and then magically wake up, whether I want more or not … My only complaint is that I’m waking up at strange hours …
Morning (after) news …
And so, the insomnia returns … It’s 3am. The house is sleeping. My studio is still 94 degrees, as the kilns are ramping down. And I can’t sleep. I’ve perused the ‘net, cleaned the studio, played with dogs and puppies, had a cocktail or two (or was it three … ???), and still – WIDE …
Totally Psyched …
I had a great day yesterday … Started with getting a decent nights sleep (and I say ‘night’ lightly – I finally beat the battle with insomnia at 3am); SANE training for a new nurse in our program (LOVE that – as for too long, I was the only SANE nurse practicing in the county!); …
Embracing insomnia …
Might as well – since I can’t sleep. I’m on puppy watch – as my York, Petunia (Tunie) is due any day now … so, I tinker and surf and organize and plan and … everything but sleep. Had a work in-service yesterday, brushing up on my OB skills since our local hospital decided to …
Sleep must be over-rated …
At least that’s what my body is telling me … ok – I guess it’s my brain, but same effect. My husband, who is snoring away, amazes me – we’ve spent SOME time analyzing my insomnia and his reply – in true male fashion – “I just turn my brain off and go to sleep.” …
I’ve got the bug …
Well, actually I have TWO … the cold virus (BUG), as some lovely child felt compelled to sneeze into my face at work this weekend … But – what I’m talking about is I’ve reacquired the web design/developing bug … About 5 yrs ago, I got it, and taught myself enough to develop and run …
