It’s 6:30 a.m. and I still haven’t been able to fall asleep.
I remember watching sunrises because I stayed out all night.
I remember watching sunrises because I spent all night in one of the art labs.
I remember watching sunrises because I sewed until dawn to meet a deadline, or simply to work without interruption.
But in this season, it’s pain that has messed up my sleep schedule. Yesterday was particularly bad. Husband was very sweet and got me some gummies to help deal with the pain plus take out from one of my favorite spots.
He was on a video call with his band mates until nearly 3 am, sharing music videos back and forth, while I read and listened to Big Thief Capacity in my earbuds. I tried to sleep when he did but instead laid in bed for two hours tossing and turning until I was in too much pain to lay down any longer. I have been in my recliner since 5:15 or so, reading and browsing the internet. I’ve been feeling nostalgic lately, so right now I am listening to Death Cab’s We Have The Facts.... Not sure if that’s a good or bad thing.
Hoping sleep comes soon and thankful I don’t have to go into the office tomorrow.
