Good Weekend
I'm pleased I've had a pretty good weekend and I was just home alone for most of it. DD and the baby were away until saturday night - I needed the break. Her bf was gone all week to his mother's so I had two nights alone in the house by myself. It was nice to have my house again; it feels like such a long time since it was 'my' house. I did a bit of cleaning but mostly just relaxed and did nothing I didn't feel like doing. I set up another batch of wine, went to the farmer's market, washed my car inside and out, did some reading and spent alot of time working on my website. There's alot left to do on the website but I'll post the link when its done. I'm learning alot and quite pleased with the results so far. DD said its very professional looking - just what I was going for.
Last night I couldn't sleep. Not sure what the problem was but the best part was I didn't lay in bed full of anxiety like I usually do when I can't sleep. I was just wide awake. I stayed up till 1 am at first then decided I should go to bed cause that's very late for me. Well I layed there till 2:45 wide awake so i got up again. I watched a bit of tv and went on the computer. Chatted with bf for a bit then called him - he's usually up very late anyway but even he was falling asleep so I let him go to bed and layed awake till about 4 am. Finally got to sleep to be woke by the phone at 10:30 am. Not bad but like I said, there was NO anxiety which made it not so bad. Usually if I can't sleep I stress out and my mind races so I can't even complain about not sleeping. I've been taking some supplements (St. John's wort, Bcomplex and evening primrose oil) so I'm not sure if that's helping or if its just coincidence but I'm gonna keep taking them just in case.
Tomorrow is work again. I'm a bit anxious about that but its a necessary evil so I'll do it. Tomorrow evening I drive my oldest dd and her baby to the city where she's flying from and we'll spend the night at my bf's. her flight leaves at 5:30 am so we'll have to have her at the airport by 3 then I'll work at bf's tuesday. I'm lucky to have a job where I can do that sort of thing... knowing that doesn't make the work any more tolerable but I tell myself I'm lucky anyway. Sometimes I'm able to convince myself enough so I don't feel too stressed about working.
