Problems sleeping....
I hate when I have issues sleeping. It has been like this all week! One night I didn't get to sleep until around 4 AM. It stinks to because I have been trying to hit the gym in the morning which requires me driving Nate to work between 8 & 8:30 AM. I just don't know what to do, and its driving me crazy. I tried taking one sleeping pill, half the recommended dose. It got me to sleep just fine, but my workout the next morning was SO rough and hard. I was still kind of drowsy. I just don't know what is up with me. Lately its just been a lot of laying in bed and my brain just won't be quiet. I have tried several techinques, but nothing is working. Its so very irritating. And once I get past trying to problem-solve whatever my brain is thinking about, I know my sleeping pattern will be in shambles. Because I will be used to going to sleep so late. So frustrating. I tried sleeping in this morning and then thinking I would hit the gym by now, but I am SO tired.....grrrr. Bodies can be so dumb sometimes! This was a long venting post! Sorry! :)

Sleeping is divine, and it always seems like a cruel joke when you can't do it. Sorry to hear about your troubles. Have you tried the gym at night?
Yeah Nate and I actually hit the gym around 9 every night, and do 30-90 minute workouts. I'm starting to narrow the problem down to 3 things. 1, Napping during the day, I don't do this often, but it could effect it.
2, Drinking caffeine. I am cutting it out of my diet completely. I know soda isn't good for me, but its so addicting.
3, Working out that late. I think sometimes it might give me an energy boost, and not so good at 11PM! Thanks Meg! :)
Yes - that's true. The gym does give you energy and might makes things worse. Maybe a nice long bath... ??? Love ya!
