Ok, it is 3:45 a.m. and I am wide awake! I mean you would think that the baby woke me up, but nope not the case. I have been awake sense 1:55 a.m. and can not go back to sleep!! People may wonder why am I awake when....
1. the baby is sleep
2. the husband is sleep
3. most of America is sleep
4. there is nothing on t.v. to watch this late at night but infomercials
5. I have a busy day ahead of me, today
6. I will not be able to go back to sleep until later tonight
7. as soon as I decide to take a nap, the phone will ring, the baby will cry and the husband will wants some attention.
8. lack of sleep cause mania (irrational behavior), which could also be the cause of why I am not sleep
9. I am tired and know I need the rest
Well to answer that question, I don't know why. As I stated before it could be mania or maybe my sleep meds are not working anymore. I mean, I can take them for so long and then they will stop working. I will either have to take more or change all together. Oh the joys of having a mental disorder. It is like some days I can't get enough sleep and other I don't need much at all. What a pity, I know, but it will hit me like a ton of bricks and I hope it will hit me tomorrow and not two or three days from now when I can't leave the baby awake while I nap.
On a happier note, we got our car! Well sort of. We still have to wait for the bank to approve us and give us the final say, but we are driving it for now. I am so stoked, but I hate the idea of having a car payment. We have been driving around in a paid off car for about a year and a half and it felt great to have the extra money. We had a plan to get out of debt, but now we have to wait a little longer. But hey, Sen has a better paying job so it helps out. We would not have been able to do this a couple of months back and still have a place to stay, but God has taken care of us in so many ways I can not even count. I will post pic's of our new beauty when I get them taken. Until then, I will do more laundry for the baby, finish the bottle washing and preparing and maybe get a couple of hours of sleep before hubby gets up and go get a hair cut.

There are MANY nights that I have the same problem, especially on Sunday night & Monday is my LONGEST day ! One reason why if you call me on a Monday evening,it would be hard to reach me because I hit the bed when I return home from work.
ReplyDeleteBut this is something that I've noticed since my late-20's & there are some days when I sleep like I'm under the influence of something. Motherhood & having that "defined hearing"...ie having to be on a hightened sense alert for when the baby moves/coughs/sneezes/open her eyes could be an inhibiting factor.
