Oh sleep…why have you forsaken me?
I think I have blogged about this before, but I don’t sleep, or sleep much. I used to love to sleep, I still do, when I can actually fall sleep and catch up when I can and need to, but I don’t sleep as soundly as I used to. When DCM gets dressed about 6:45/7:00, that’s when my brain wakes up and that’s it, I’m up.
Now, most people who post on Facebook that they can’t sleep but want to, I feel for them. As for me, I’m ok with it, I get a lot done, I’m nocturnal, so this is my time to shine!
Sometimes I read a book or two, but most of the time, I’m writing, to you or working on my book and I have a good feeling that this is the year I finish it! But mostly, I am watching movies and crafting. You saw the sock monkey I made for Miss A, well that is one example of what I do. I cross stitch a lot, which I will be sharing some of my latest creations soon and I have been knitting like crazy! I knitted a bunch of scarves for Christmas and now, I’m knitting some hats and scarves for some friends and one special friends mom who is going through some stuff, she needs some warm and fuzzy!
Next thing to work on learning is socks and sweaters, good thing I don’t sleep!
SDL’s mom made me a hat and an infinity scarf this year and I got my first wash cloth that she crocheted, this thing is awesome, SDL and her sister swear by them and I got my first! And…it was Smarties colored and I had just eaten a sleeve of Smarties, what are the odds? Well, today, I happened to be at Michael’s picking up some yarn and decided to get some of the same material and make a bag for her to carry the wash cloths in as she makes them.
All I can say is that I am definitely productive when I am awake, as evident by some of my posts that get posted at 3:00 in the am! So when I tell a friend that they can call me anytime day or night and they say they were up at two and thought about calling because they needed/wanted someone to talk to, I was probably awake and if I’m really tired and you call, not to worry, I won’t answer the phone!
Insomnia? Bring it on! It’s cold out there…someone needs a scarf!
