Cats!

[DailyDi]

I laid awake all night last night, not actually getting to sleep until after 6:30 in the morning... meanwhile, the cat is asleep balanced on a curtain rod in the bathroom window!

Wish I could plop down literally anywhere and fall fast asleep!

Hate it when that happens. 

It takes me "forever" to fall asleep - so anything I can do to minimize any disruptions helps immensely.  Hence the diapers at night even though I don't "need" them.  If I get up, it's 30-45 minutes or more just to fall back asleep.

I guess it's all part of getting old ? I have sleep issues too, and if I meditate before bed, that seems to help a lot..... Quiets the mind, and get rid of all the ' noise' or traffic...... Relax and just fall asleep....need to do that tonight.....sleep has been miserable lately..... Ugh

And getting away from computer/TV screens too.    I'm very bad about that -- frequently on the computer right up to lights out.   I'm trying to get out of that habit and spend at least 5-10 minutes reading - physical material, not electronic.   Lately it's been "The Complete Calvin & Hobbes"!  ?
