I am writing this in the early hours of Tuesday morning. 10 after 1am. My Maine Coon, Callie is lying at my side with her front legs wrapped around my arm. My sweet, Betsy is lying in my lap. I can barely write.
I should be asleep. Jordan and I have to get up early and take care of a baby with an infection and Diabetes. She has to eat early, have her Clavomox and Insulin shot. I will be dead tired in the morning. But still I cannot sleep.
I couldn't go to bed when I needed to because my mom needed to talk about her husband. She's worried because he has to have a test, she is scared. I am glad I could help her.
But I missed my window of sleep. So now I stayed awake too long, and I can't go to sleep at all.
"Without A Trace" is on the tv. Here comes my shaded-silver Persian to see why mommie isn't asleep. Her name is Fancie too. So how am I supposed to write now, with another kittie all over me. I love them all so much.
I keep thinking about how I'm supposed to take care of myself. My therapist is always telling me to do that. But when do I do that? My daughter needs me. She has a female problem. We are concerned. I have a sick kittie. Mama is worried about her husband. I haven't even included my husband in Tampa, who needs me with him. We are trying to sell the house there. So many things, so many problems.
Is all of that why I can't sleep? Did I really miss my window of sleep? Or is my mind just too busy?
I was a little girl of five years, when I was staying with my grandmother, when Mama was out on one of her many dates. I told Mother, I couldn't sleep. She said put your mind on a shelf and go to sleep. I had forgotten about that. It comes to me now. Maybe I will try that. Will it work? I hope that it does. I am so tired!
Before I try to go to sleep by Mother's remedy. I would like to say something about my blog before this one. I know everyone was right in what they all said. I need to concentrate on our love for each other. I know how much I mean to him, because he has told me and shown me. That does help me very much. I love him just as much. I know that it won't be perfect. But then what is. But with God's help it will be His Success!
Now I will try to sleep again.

I have been an insomniac for years. I live that what your grandma said though. 'Put your mind on a shelf'. That's smart. Guess that's why she was your grandma. Here's to better nights.

I hope everythin worked out with your daughter and mom. Hopefully the house will sell too. Have you thought of renting it out? The rental market is a little better than the sales.
