It's another night when I'm struggling to sleep. Pain isn't too bad...just monkey mind. My brain is flitting around and finding no place to stop. I'll list a few thoughts as they crowd in and out of my mind:
- The ceiling fan looks like a star
- I wonder if Mao Clinic thinks eating wheat causes inflammation and weight gain?
- What's that light...oh yea, it's the bathroom light I left on
- Wish my back wasn't hurting
- Wonder why Daisy is restless
- Do I have enough water in my glass...my throat has been staying dry
- I wonder if Marty turned the heat down before we went to bed
- My front tooth feels sensitive
- I read 71 books last year...starting my 3rd this year...what should my goal be for the year? Maybe I shouldn't make one...I just read what I read anyway and who really cares???
- I've been lying up here almost 3 hours and still don't feel like I can sleep
- I've got to exercise tomorrow...can't be lazy like today
- I hope Isabel likes the birthday gifts we got her
- Peanut and Zoe go to the groomer tomorrow...wish I'd put it off
- Need to review some manuscripts...Karen might have responses for me too
- Don't know why I'm having more trouble breathing today
- I should make that chicken- vegetable soup - I think I have everything for it
- Think I'll eat wheat again...not sure it is as bad as that book made it out to be - I really believe that everything is OK in moderation; plus I won't stick with it long-term anyway. I never do with stuff like that...maybe cause I don't have any faith in myself
- That light in the bathroom bugs me...feel like the dogs need it though
- Wish I could sleep like Marty...he goes right to sleep and sleeps well for the most part
- Gotta remember to pickup that gift at Best Buy
- I took Mom for granted...did I think she was going to live forever??? She was 72!
- Wish I had nothing to do tomorrow
- The blog site needs more backgrounds...I'm bored with all they have...it's a free site though so I guess I shouldn't complain
- Isabel told me I was too nice the other day...started to tell her that you can never be too nice, but then wondered if that was true...it's cool that she thinks I'm nice though
- My feet feel cold even with all this cover
- My neck hurts...shoulders too
- Gotta find a new position...hips are hurting worse
- Need to get that cheese for Gage before Monday
- The quilting basics class is on a day I can go now, but I'm not sure I have the energy for it now
- Looks like a shadow of some kind on the ceiling
- Wish this cough would go away...I'm really tired of it
Enough talk of my monkey mind...it's too much to keep up with; plus, it's kind of depressing to hear myself think. When I don't write my thoughts, they fly from my brain without much attention paid to them. When I write or say my thoughts out loud, they have more impact on my emotions. That can be bad.
I do feel sleepier now. Maybe by listing the sometimes mindless matters that clutter my brain, I bored myself into a sleepy state. I can only hope! :-)
