Yo...I've done that more times then I care to admit. You need you time. Your mind is taking it wherever it can get it. Don't beat yourself up about it, but perhaps if you find a time/place to reserve a bit of you time you'll stop robbing your sleep in such an extreme.Lorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06322778291206842093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11777429.post-1124843401240667072005-08-23T20:30:00.000-04:002005-08-23T20:30:00.000-04:00I have always liked staying up and watching late n...I have always liked staying up and watching late night TV and just having time to myself to meditate on the days' happenings and what was or is in store for the next day.

But my husband these days looks at me and says "bedtime..."<BR/>I hate mornings, I hate waking up. in the morning I wonder what was so wrong with the bed the night before? I am useless as a mom with out sleep, it isnt good to beg your child to nap :) <BR/>I feel you.mommy zabshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10867526867356840793noreply@blogger.com
