sleep
4:18 a.m. - 2005-12-07
I hate insomnia. I don't even know I spelled that right. I hear everyone in my family enjoying their sleep right now. There is this beautiful sound of deep quiet breathing, light snoring and quiet. Yet here I am bug-eyed and awake. Not to mention Jealous.
I want to be able to lay down at night and drift off into that same peace. Not toss and turn and finally get back up to the crack of dawn when my body or mind will finally allow me the rest it so needs.
My parents and his parents are both coming here for Christmas. What a treat. His parents always come, they wouldn't miss it for the world. But my parents never come so this is very special for me. I am elated about it. Not only are they coming for Christmas but Christmas eve too. I really cannot express how awesome that is.
For Christmas eve I hope the weather is cool and dry so we can have a nice fire in the backyard. My mom would love that and I know she does not get to do things like that where she lives.
I love where I live.
Friends gave us this 6 feet tall lawn ornament of a family of reindeer holding up a sign that read happy holidays. Very cute. Inflatable and the lit up. When we put them up the dog was afraid of it. She would bark at it and run. Yesterday she got braver and flat out attacked it. Because it must have been a menace to her domain? Sheesh. Needless to say she popped it, scared the shit out of herself and took off for the backyard, like we wouldn't notice? Crazy mutt.
Gonna go try this sleep thing out again.
