Fingers Crossed

I think I'm sleeping again. It may have something to do with my taking Nyquil due to having caught a cold, but I'm sleeping.

Sleep is pure bliss! I don't know why people purposefully do without it!

And the other great news?! It's almost May-almost the end of the school year. Almost time to do nothing everyday but relax and ramble in the outdoors. Oh, I love summer!

2:40 am and counting.....

Guess who's tired, been to bed and is back up again at 2:35am? Yup. Can't sleep. I can't figure this out! I've had no caffeine, feel no stress and have no "irons in the fire." I feel tired so I go to bed, turn off the lights and snuggle into my pillow. Just about that time I discover my brain thinks it is time to be wide awake! Not in the mood relaxing tea(besides who wants to turn on the kettle in the middle of the night). Maybe I'll try some sudoku.

3:07 am

So here's the thing. I have been having some sleep issues. I feel tired, only to go to bed and not be able to fall asleep. I have also struggled with some random anxiety issues these past few months too. I don't like it. The sleeplessness is probably related to the anxiety although when I haven't been able to sleep I haven't felt anxiety.

And yes, I am tired.

And yes it is the middle of the night.

And yes, I have been waking up at the same time every morning.


Now how do I get over this hurdle of not sleeping? My eyes say sleep yet it still alludes me. My mind is not clear enough to make clear, interesting sentences. Please be kind.
