Up at 3, but luckily able to get back to sleep for a bit before the crappy alarm went off at 5. But I was soooo disoriented b/c I thought I hadn't fallen back asleep. I hate that!

3:28 here.

:-( my laptop died. I have an author comin, a presentation to do at a two day conference that also requires I get a sub. And though I backed up last week, I did a bunch of scrapping and organizing of scrap files on Sunday (after which I did not back up). Can I cry now? I know there is nothing more to do tonight. I need tech support to see if I can get my files off befor I do a time machine back up. But I can't get back to sleep. And there is a noise I'm hearing in my living room that I can't pinpoint where it is coming from. I can't tell if its my laptop or not! It's bizarre. *sigh* I'm going to try a crossword puzzle. Lol

Oh Sara-- that is awful. Its one thing to be awake from some random thing, but to be awake under that stress is even worse.
Hope it all works out for you!

I was up at 2:15. Well, no way was I going to give up on that much sleep. So, I got a glass of milk, went back to bed, browsed Pinterest on my iPad, tried to sleep, got up...and eventually gave up because it's now 4:30. So...here I am!

So, as you guys know I have to wake up at 4:00 to open my stand...BUT...for some crazy reason I wake up at 3 something without enough time to really keep sleeping. So annoying. I actually enjoy it when I wake up at 12:30 or 1:00am because I think "Wow!! I have so much more time to sleep!!!" and then I role over and go back to sleep. At 3 something it is a bit depressing. :(

I could set my alarm :hurt: Yes...my mental alarm is going off about 5 am now...sometimes a little earlier....but I am getting around 6 hours a night now...that's pretty good for me...and most of the time enough!

Laurie, i doubt anyone would have wanted to get a text from ME about the election results.... :rant: but it is what it is. now i'm trying to figure out how to work in a few more hours of sleep. 4 hours isn't enough to make it through THIS day, even for me.

I had my hubby wake me up if he says the returns come in-- but only if it were good news for me. I have a terrible time trying to sleep on election nights, worse than Christmas I think!

Today looks like it would be a perfect day for a nap!

I had the craziest dream Monday night. I had this dream t5hat I had plans to go and see Nana. I had just talked to her on the phone and we were packing up to drive up there (cuz it was the weekend) and then my alarm went off. I was disappointed on sooooo many levels. Mostly because it was not in fact the weekend and also because I wasn't visiting Nana. Sad.

That is sad. :-( I wouldn't want to wake up to that. The last two nights I have slept horribly. I am hoping all that will change tonight. We'll see.

Clara that would make me sad too!

I have been up since about 3:45 too. I wasn't sure how much snow we got, if the roads were bad, how they were going to deal with school if there were delayed openings, since 4 of the elem schools are still sharing 2 buildings....
Why this always wakes me up since there is nothing I can do about any of it anyway is beyond me!

Ugh, Phyllis-- can you take a nap at all? I can't nap, makes me feel way worse (good thing I like The Caffeine so much).
Hang in there-- take b-12's and lots of water if you can.

Than I saw a textmessage from Clara. We chatted a bit LOL

So I got up.....I got on the computer for about an hour and was just about ready to go back to bed....JESSE WOKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! uugghh...nightmare.....I had to put him back to bed three times.....it's been an hour and half since the last time....and I am still WIDE AWAKE!!!
