Sleep

Lately I haven't been "sleeping." I've been going to be rather early...like 9pm...and waking up at a reasonable hour....I lay down, fall alseep, wake up and feel as if I just layed down. I haven't quite figured out what my problem is as of yet. Due to my lack of "sleep" I've been having some crazy thoughts lately...I liken it back to my college years when I used to keep a journal next to my bed. My brain would light up with right as I was about to drift off...If I was coherent enough I'd grab my journal and pencil away...I still have the journal and all the CRAZY things my brain concocked! So here's my reason for all this:

This morning on my drive in I was thinking about how 2008 flew by as if it were "one" day. I did so much last year and it all feels as if it happened just moments earlier....For instance I was working with this woman on putting together her insurance last June. She called in yesterday and she said her name and I recalled everything that'd we'd been working on from June....Now you may think this is silly for me to even comment on this, but I literally felt like I was just working her! This was from JUNE!!!! I can't comprehend why the time seems to fly by so quickly....This is just one example of many where a great length of time has passed and I "feel" as if it were just moments earlier....I think my brain is so hungary for yummy sleepogen (fun oxegen you get when you sleep) that it's starting to effect me in my awakeness!!

I'll keep you posted if I find my remedy!

PS. I'm going to kick the dogs out of the bedroom for a few days to see if they're the cause.... :)

I read this post and thought it was really funny. I live in Mill Creek...didn't know if you knew that, and I was actually driving by the town center right about the time the speech was going on. Small world!

20th Anniversary

Crazy to think it's been 20 years since we said our vows on that stormy rainy day in March.  This year we had plans to get a hotel in Lynnwood and galavant around Seattle for a few days. We ended up going to Herb Niemans on our anniversary, then to Boundary Bay for lunch the next day and we finished our anniversary weekend kidless in lynden. Amy & Bri ended up coming up and spending two days with mom. Saturday we left for the dahlia tuber sale then to El Suentio Brewery for lunch, a brisk walk in the cold wind out at birch bay and then a drink @ The Mill and dinner at Nami sushi. Our anniversary was filled with love and togetherness. We are so spoiled.

Gestational diabetes

Two weeks ago I took the one hour glucose test and failed it so I had to go due the dreaded 3 hour fasting glucose test.  It's horribly awful. You drink 100 milligrams of sugar on a fasting stomach and then get poked times to test you blood glucose levels.  Since I was positive for GD with Gwyn I went straight to the 3 hour test with Gabby and passed!  I was feeling pretty confident that I'd pass this time and I DID hallelujah!  All my numbers came back within range. I'm still keeping a close eye on my carb/sugar intake as I know how that can pack on the pounds for both baby and me.  So far I'm up 8 pounds. I was hoping to only gain ten thus whole pregnancy and that's still my goal.  I was 10 lbs heavier than I was when I got pregnant with Gabby and I gained 20 lbs with her so I figure that it's only appropriate that I keep my total gain to ten.  MUST KEEP COUNTING CALORIES. Ugh.  I don't find it easy like other women to loose wait after baby. If ...

Down time

All my life I've kept busy. I'm a busy person. I feel more at peace when I'm busy. The one downside to the consitency that is busyness is that often random thoughts will enter my mind about projects, bills, fundraisers, events, aka..other things I could be doing with my time. As quickly as I think of the ideas its on it's way to lala land....I started keeping a journal when I was in college so that whenever one of those ideas would enter my mind I could capture it. My "to do" journal is full of these fun ideas. Right now in my life I have a whole lot of free time that I don't know what to do with and where or where could my journal be...??? I can't find it. I feel lost without it. I have all this time now and I don't know what to do with myself. Before I know it I will be so busy with the agency I wont even have time to write. So I sit here (keeping myself busy) hoping that some of those glorious thoughts will enter my mind. Once I re...
